looks like they broke the spectator size record...didn't Fed and Zverev just recently set that during their South American exhibition tour?

I love this picture more than any in-competition photo of these guys.

Yup! Canada may have lost the tie, but what an experience for this young lady. The Canadians were in tough with all the injuries. This is a huge silver lining.

Vasek just won the opening set 6-3 over Goffin. Keep it going Pops!

Third set required as Goffin takes set 2 6-1. Vasek needs to find his first serve as it went missing in set 2.

Uh oh, Goffin breaks Vasek and is serving for the match up 5-4. Some high quality tennis from both guys in this 3rd set.

Wow, Vasek breaks right back and we're back on serve at 5-5

Edit: Pops holds serve at love and guarantees himself at worst a 3rd set tie-breaker.

Who needs a tie-breaker when you break Goffin to take the match 6-3 1-6 7-5. Up next, Monfils in the Sunday final.

Monfils takes the opening set 7-5 with a fantastic forehand winner down the line.

Vasek has taken a couple of tumbles in this match and is now receiving a medical timeout.

Gael takes it 7-5 6-3. Man, I thought Vasek played great today, but that's some of the best tennis I've seen Monfils play in quite some time.

Unfortunately when Monfils plays, it's him who determines who wins. When he wants to play there are very few players that can beat him when he's playing his best.

Still great results for Vasek, can't wait to see him in Calgary
