^^To be fair there's never really been more than one semi-successful Canadian player to cheer for. Now there are two elite prospects, a borderline elite prospect, and Milos keeps trucking along. We've never been in much of a position to cheer nationalistically.

Kyrgios takes care of business though. Took care for Lajovic easily

It would be pretty cool if Felix can get by Bashilashvili and Kyrgios dispatches Coric to watch a Felix - Kyrgios quarter-final.

Ehh. I'll play Don Cherry and argue that nothing about Kyrgios' clown show should be glorified. Much less by the ATP Tour itself. Not if you want to be taken seriously.

I see Rublev as almost a mirror image of Denis, a young guy who definitely likes to go for his shots and also battles serving demons where the double faults can just come out of nowhere. Shapo is starting to become more patient and putting more balls in play these days (especially when returning serve), it should be an interesting match today.

Bianca will need to go three sets once again as she drops the opening set by a 6-1 score.

I think Bianca should retire, she's finally hit a wall and needs to protect that shoulder.

She's played a ton of tennis in 2019, it's no wonder her body is starting to wear down.

There we go. She needed to pull the plug.

She's the one who slices and dices, isn't she?!? A master of throwing off timing and rhythm for her opponent.
