The spectators at the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in Montreal experienced another day on Thursday (local time) that was not exactly short of small to big surprises. Definitely not a surprise at the moment is Nick Kyrgios' renewed victory. The Australian defeated his compatriot Alex de Minaur in the round of 16 without any problems 6: 2, 6: 3 and in the quarter-finals he was up against the Pole Hubert Hurkacz, who defeated the Spaniard Albert Ramos Vinolas in a 2:25-hour thriller 6:7 (6), 6:2, 7:6 (3).
The South Tyrolean Jannik Sinner, on the other hand, failed: The Italian, who was in seventh place, lost surprisingly clearly 2: 6, 4: 6 to Pablo Carreno Busta from Spain. The Iberian's next opponent is qualifier Jack Draper, who benefited from a surrender by Frenchman Gael Monfils at a score of 6-2, 2-0. Another seed eliminated in the round of 16 was Taylor Fritz against Daniel Evans. The Briton prevailed 7: 6 (5), 1: 6, 7: 5.
The Englishman's next opponent will be Tommy Paul, who in turn clearly took the number 13 of the hard court event Marin Cilic out of the competition 6:4, 6:2. The favorites were able to prevail twice: Casper Ruud fought his way through after a 3:18 hour game 6: 7 (4), 7: 6 (4), 6: 4 against Roberto Bautista Agut, Felix Auger-Aliassime made the 6: 3, 6: 4 against Cameron Noerrie a good figure.
