Canucks This Week – Week ending Sept. 21, 2025 (final results)

–

It’s Billie Jean King Cup finals week, so there is only one WTA tournament higher than the WTA 125 level scheduled, even if not many players are competing in the finals in Shenzhen. So Seoul is fairly stacked.

It’s also the week after a Davis Cup weekend, so a lot of players are either not getting to the opening events in Asia, or are playing Laver Cup this week. Those ATP tournaments are starting a few days later than usual to accommodate.

Still, plenty of Canadian content to go around.

And the winner of the week is Benjamin Thomas George, in doubles at Kursumlijska Banja.

(Chengdu results carried over to next week, with the Tuesday final).
