–

Two Canadians had the opportunity to get to an ATP 500 final, Saturday in Basel and Vienna.

Félix Auger-Aliassime had perhaps the tougher task, as he took on world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz. On the plus side, he was 2-0 against him.

Make that 3-0

Denis Shapovalov got Borna Coric, who has been playing some super tennis this week in Vienna.

But so has Shapovalov. And after a tight first set, he ran away with it to set up a Canadian doubleheader on finals Sunday.
