Did anyone else make it out to the event at the CORE today for the Calgary tennis tournament announcement?

Ivo Karlovic is going to be coming back to defend his title, besides him and Vasek not too many known names confirmed to be coming.

I think Brayden Schnur has committed to the Calgary event (not a big name unless you really follow tennis, but a fellow Canadian to root for). I wonder if fellow Canadians Steven Diez and Peter Polansky will also be coming to Calgary).

Just a heads-up that Shapo is taking on Grigor Dimitrov at the ATP 500 event in Rotterdam and I believe TSN3 has the match. Let's go Shapo!

Here's the full field:

Spoiler!


The highest-ranked player is Dominik Koepfer. There are fewer Canadians than I expected.

There will likely be a few more Canadians added through qualifying. It is strange that Polansky isn't playing, unless of course he's injured. Ito, Koepfer, Pospisil, Schnur, Soeda and Karlovic are all pretty solid players and definite top 100 calibre players.

I was hoping we'd see a few more guys like Hyeon Chung, Dennis Novak and Alex Bolt, but I'm sure it will be a great event nonetheless.

Yeesh, Denis just bowed out in straight sets to Dimitrov 6-3 7-6(3). Not a great start to the 2020 season for Shapo.

Edit: Seeing way too much of this from Denis these days...

Tomic should just retire, he's already stated that he has enough money...

Oh man, a shot of the year candidate followed by dumping a forehand into the net.

Upset alert as Hubert Hurkacz just won the opening set over #2 seed Greek Yogurt in a tie-breaker.

That's a tough opening round loss for Brayden Schnur at the New York Open as he made the final a year ago and is going to drop some big time points. I think he's just inside the top 120 currently and this loss to Dominik Koepfer could drop him to around 180 or so.

/Milos is also playing at the New York Open (seeded #2)

If you go to the Core downtown they have a little tennis court up promoting the Calgary Open.

Results from Rotterdam:

PCB over RBA (battle of three initial Spaniards) 6-4 2-6 7-6
Goffin dispatches local favourite Hasse in three sets 3-6 7-6 6-4

Later today, a Canadian double-header as Vasek has a real tough match versus Danill Medvedev followed by Felix taking on Grigor Dimitrov.

Really excited to see Koepfer, watched a lot of the US open and he was great until he ran into Medvedev.
