–

The summer season is beginning in earnest on the hard courts, although Denis Shapovalov won’t be a part of the start of it, out in both D.C. and at home at the National Bank Open.

But everyone else is around – including the return of Milos Raonic to Toronto after five years away.

It’s the biggest week of tennis in Canada every year and WE ARE HERE FOR IT.
