Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Tuesday is typically homeboy day at tournaments – with Kazakhs on the stadium court in Almaty, Belgians in Antwerp and Swedes in Stockholm.

So the Kazakhs get to see a clash between one of the original former Russians-turned-Kazakhs, and the newest.

But the best lineup is on the second court in Almaty. Without a doubt.

And that included Canadian Gabriel Diallo, who got through.

(Almaty is 9 hours ahead of EDT; Stockholm and Antwerp are 6 hours ahead)
