–
Two big matches involving Canadians in Metz Wednesday.
First, qualifier Brayden Schnur took on home-country favorite Lucas Pouille and if he had it in his hands early, he let it slip away.
Vasek Pospisil faced wild card Andy Murray, and had a poor serving day while Murray, who played well, made his first ATP Tour quarterfinal since 2019.
