Ugh, not good news, but in all honesty, not unexpected at this point.

who has missed the last two tournaments in Quebec City and Seoul with a virus she caught in New York competing in the U.S. Open. She is also expected to miss the upcoming Wuhan Open in China.
She has no luck at all at the US Open, does she?

Good news, tennis fans - It appears that TSN has picked up the broadcast rights for the Laver Cup this weekend. Previously, only TVA Sports had rights, but TSN has been added as shown by clicking on the following link (select Countries and scroll down to Canada):

That's great news!! Excited to see Nadal and Fed playing doubles will be exciting to watch for sure. Del Potro dropped out so Francis Tiafo has taken his spot. If there were no injuries this tournament would have been a lot more exciting but what can you do.

Canada's drawn Croatia for the opening round of Davis Cup next year (Feb 2-4).

As a Canadian-Croatian, I chuckle a bit

Wow. This a fantastic first round match-up for a finally healthy (we hope) Canadian team.

I would love for Canada to play the US in Davis Cup, the victory would be so sweet.

I wonder which service Croatia will choose to contest the tie - They have some guys who can really rip it (Marin Cilic, Dr. Ivo Karlovic) and young up-and-comer Borna Coric.

All Laver Cup coverage will be shown on TSN3 - Here's hoping Denis gets the evening matches in Prague.

With singles, Cilic/Coric vs Raonic/Shapo could be a lot of fun. But would Croatia leave out Karlovic? He's been an important contributor over the years and like you said, it's all about the serve.

Dodig is their doubles specialist, but it depends on who he's paired with.

Right or wrong why even say it? Its disrespectful to say that to the current world #1 and defending US Open champ. I get trying to stir the pot and give some excitement to this tournament but Nadal is on top of the tennis world right now, and Krygios is struggling to even stay relevant at this point.

Edit* I don't think he's wrong either
