MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

2021 Australian Open – Day 5 men’s singles final results

.

MELBOURNE, Australia – It’s the all-Canadian matchup you’ve been waiting for, with Denis Shapovalov and Félix Auger-Aliassime meeting in the third round of a major.

Unfortunately for Canadian tennis fans, the schedulers weren’t kind enough to put the match on early in the day (i.e., in the evening and night back in Canada).

The 7 p.m. start works out to … 3 a.m. in the east, midnight in the west.
