Canucks This Week – Week ending Aug. 31, 2025 (final results)

–

Flushing Meadows, NY – Five of the six Canadians in the US Open main draw are seeded.

Which has never happened and which is an impressive thing.

For Leylah Fernandez, a better first round to ease her way into the tournament in facing a qualifying-depleted Rebecca Marino. While Victoria Mboko got another former Grand Slam champion, and it was a little too much for her to overcome with a bad wrist.

Other players in action around the planet, although a slightly smaller pack than usual.

(US Open players still alive are rolled over into next week’s roster).
