–

The three Grand Slam champions so far this season, a rematch of the Roland Garros final – and a Canadian were the stadium court lineup Thursday in Montreal.

Rain came and messed things up quite a bit, with two third-round matches still to be played Friday and those winners having to double up.

It was the end of the road for Leylah Fernandez, soundly beaten by a suddenly back-in-form Danielle Collins.
