Eugenie Bouchard, Leylah Annie Fernandez, Denis Shapovalov and Felix Auger Aliassime were among the top representative of the Canadian contingent at the current French Open with Milos Raonic and Bianca Andreescu out.
Unfortunately, Shapovalov and Auger Aliassime didn’t really shine in the French slam. Denis lost a tough match in the 2nd round against the world no.101, Roberto Carballes Baena, after squandering a 5-3 lead in the 5th set and failing to serve out the match on 2 occasions. Felix lost in straight sets to Yoshihito Nishioka as early as in the 1st round.
While Shapovalov and Auger-Aliassime’s results were rather disappointing, the Canadian tennis fans can rejoice that Genie Bouchard and the upcoming teenager Leylah Fernandez are in the 3rd round after playing good tennis.
