This week Erik and Aidan recap the result of the Canadian Open, where American Ben Shelton emerged victorious! The young American was definitely a top contender, but this was still an unexpected result, achieving a finals victory over Russian Karen Khachanov. Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Masters was already underway, with the first couple of rounds already completed. Whether it is fatigue or simply the tough conditions in Ohio at this time of the year, many top seeds have already fallen out of the tournament. With the return of Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz however, this tournament may prove to be much more of a challenge for any underdog contender. Be sure to check back next week for a recap of the full Cincinnati tournament!

This week Erik and Aidan discuss the first few rounds of the ATP Canada Masters that is currently taking place in Toronto. With top seeds like Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, and Novak Djokovic absent from the tournament, it is a great opportunity for another top player or underrated newcomer to step up and take the tournament as an underdog. Favorites like Taylor Fritz and Alexander Zverev seem to be on a collision course, but other threats like Alex De Minaur and Ben Shelton seem to be waiting in the wings for a chance to strike for the title. Be sure to check back next week when we recap the result of the tournament and look forward to Cincinnati!Contents: Intro 0:00Early Upsets 3:55Fritz vs Diallo 9:55Michelsen Analysis 11:25Khachanov's Chance? 13:30Popyrin's Inconsistency 14:27Rublev's Luck 15:42Dan Evans Beef 16:33Quarterfinals Preview 18:33What's New? 25:20Bets of the Week 28:45Matches of the Week 31:00
