Three Canadians hit the courts Saturday in Shanghai.
And two of them played each other. Félix Auger-Aliassime played his first match as a married man agains Chilean-Canadian Alejandro Tabilo, who is having an excellent Asian swing.
The two have actually never met before. But Auger-Aliassime got through in straight sets.
Denis Shapovalov got Aussie Christopher O’Connell, and is through in straight sets.
Also on tap: Sinner, Zverev, de Minaur, Medvedev and Rublev. Tough half.
