–

Even though Wimbledon is still in full swing (with no middle Sunday of rest), the rest of the tennis world carries on, with those who have been eliminated, and those who never made it in the first place.

Only Denis Shapovalov remains alive in singles. But there are three Canadians in the mixed doubles and Leylah Fernandez in the women’s doubles.

So we’re rolling over those who are still alive.

Elsewhere, lots of other action as the competitive season in Canada gets under way.

The winneres are Victoria Mboko, 16, who won the Saskatoon Challenger for the second time (and didn’t drop a set). And Joshua Lapadat in doubles in Laval.
