–

The week after the Canadian 1000 events is a crazy time.

The top players move on to a similar event in Cincinnati. The rest go back to their regular-scheduled lives. And that means Gabriel Diallo and Alexis Galarneau, disappointed in Montreal, are back on the Challenger circuit in Cary, NC and the Dominican Republic, respectively.

Rebecca Marino qualified for a $100K, Carol Zhao was in a WTA 125 in Colombia. And there are a host of players spread all over the place.

Erin Routliffe and Gabriela Dabrowski, who are in the Toronto final Monday, didn’t play together next week as Dabrowski took a week after all the Olympic frenzy. Routliffe played with bestie Asia Muhammad for the first time – and they won it! Over country woman and former doubles partner Leylah Fernandez in the final. Which was also a great result for her.
