Alcaraz doesn't look very good right now, not sure what's going on with him. Maybe that Olympics loss took a big emotional toll on him

Stan the Man is out, is this the last tournament for him? His 2016 championship at the US Open was insane, defeating Djokovic in the finals by blasting him off the court.

Didn't expend much energy in set 2, needs a final push now in set 3.

Gabriel gets Arthur Fils in round 2 which is going to be tough...Gabe will need to serve lights out and hope that he catches Fils on an off day.

Oh Canada

Things seemed to be on the upswing as the season progressed. Our home continent and no one past the first round :’(

Except Gabriel. I have no idea who he is, but he is now our golden child!

Darn, but I can't be mad at Jasmine Paolini, she's a truly nice person and a heck of a tennis player.

Call me a grumpy old man if you want, but is it too much to ask Kyrgios to put on a suit and tie? The hoodie and ball cap just doesn't make it for me.

Why do Fowler and Evert keep calling Coco Gauff the #1 doubles player in the world? She used to be, but Erin Routliffe is currently the #1 ranked doubles player in the world.

Man, Sebi Korda was having a fine summer and he goes out in straight sets to Tomas Machac. Machac is a fine player, but this is a missed opportunity for Korda.

Diallo picks the perfect time to break Fils as he takes the opening set 7-5. Serving well and getting lots of returns in play, keep it going Gabriel!!

Fils takes set 2 in a tie-break hitting some incredible shots including a tweener.
