I hope this doesn't impact Nick's participation in the National Bank Open, there's a potential Kyrgios - Medvedev R2 match.

Kyrgios is having a good year is a little conflicting for me. On one hand his antics are annoying and I often cheer for him to lose against a lot of players. On the other hand I like watching him because he's talented and you never know what's going to happen during his matches.

this is where I'm at with him as well, he's the Oilers of tennis to me. I like to be entertained and nauseated at the same time.

So it was 6-2 5-1 for Sloane Stephens over Sofia Kenin and Sloane has had three match points (two at 1-5 and one at 5-2). It is now 5-6 with Sloane serving to stay in set 2.

Edit: Sloane forced a tie-break in set 2, but Sofia takes it 7-5 and we need a 3rd set.

It was raining in Montreal earlier, it's cleared up for the men to commence play and now it's raining in Toronto.

It used to be that Shapo's serve would let him down at crucial times. Now it's his ground strokes.

Edit: De Minaur picks the perfect time to break just before the tie-break to take the opening set 7-5

Okay, that's better from Denis as he breaks the Aussie and is serving at 2-1 in set 2.

Edit: Consolidates the break with a couple of big serves saving a couple of break points in the process.

Just got to the hotel in Montreal, man the bagged took forever and the line for taxis was nuts. Heading out for something to eat hopefully I can catch a Shapo comeback.

Back on serve as Shapo plays a poor service game.

Will we get Leyla anywhere on TV?
Probably not the start?
I think I only get one of the RSN channels but get a few Tennis channel extras

Denis starts playing some of his best tennis and the skies open up midway through the second set tie-break.

Leylah up 4-3 now. Her opponent, Sanders, is impressive and playing well.
