MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

ATP Tour – Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2024 final results

Denis Shapovalov in the day session, and Félix Auger-Aliassime – a Canadian Olympic hero – in the night session.

Both had tough ones; Shapovalov has the very steady Brandon Nakashima, and Auger-Aliassime has Flavio Cobolli, last week’s Citi Open finalist. And both are out.

In doubles, the young team of Liam Draxl and Ben Sigouin get a wild card.

And there was an “all-singles” all-star doubles match between Alexander Bublik and Ben Shelton (who face each other in singles in the first round) and Jack Draper and Jannik Sinner.

That was pretty entertaining.
