MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

WTA Tour – Sunday, Aug. 20, 2023 final results

One match left in Cincinnati, where 19-yeat-old Coco Gauff looks to build upon her big upset win over world No. 1 Iga Swiatek in the semis by beating unseeded Karolina Muchova in the singles final.

And in Cleveland, they’re already under way with a Saturday finish.

Lots of Canadian content with Leylah Fernandez meeting Linda Noskova in the singles, and the team of Erin Routliffe and Gabriela Dabrowski playing their first-round doubles match.
