–

The regular seasons are over. And there are no Canadians qualified at the ATP Tour Finals in Turin, Italy.

And the Billie Jean King Cup finals only begin next weekend for the defending Canadian champions.

But that doesn’t mean there aren’t a ton of Canuckians scattered around the tennis universe this week.

Again, on the men’s side, they’re gathered in Quebec – Drummondville, to be precise – at a larger Challenger event that will include Vasek Pospisil in both singles and doubles.
