Canadian content back-to-back with Félix Auger-Aliassime followed by Denis Shapovalov.
Both were trying to get to the fourth round, and looked impressive in their openers.
Shapovalov had the tougher task, on paper, with the higher seed Lehecka (who has been pretty quiet overall of late, though). Too tough, as it turned out.
And Alexander Zverev will try to cope with the slow, “unfavorable” court as he took on Arthur Rinderknech. Poor guy. He lost. Must have been the court.
