Hard court season continues in North America with the National Bank Open (the Canadian Open in Montreal and Quebec), already underway, with the top 32 players waiting for rivals before their debut on Tuesday, directly on second round (round of 64).
With the absence of Aryna Sabalenka, citing fatigue after playing 56 matches this year and exiting in Wimbledon in the semi-finals, Coco Gauff is the top seeded player in Canada this week. Other notable withdrawals are those of Zheng Qinwen and Paula Badosa, all of them because of injuries.
