Surely some of the Canadians on here are watching. Canadians Leylah Fernandez( finals), felix auger aliassime(Semi-finals), and Gaby Dabrowski(Semi-finals) still playing.
First off so good watching Tennis again with the roar and tension of a live crowd. Underrated reason for break outs happening here, some people feed off a crowd and we've had a year and a half of not knowing which new players had that part in their tools.
The Woman's finals on Saturday is two teens who came into this US Open with a world ranking of #73 for Fernandez and #150 for Raducanu making it what I would think has to be one of if not the most improbable Slam finals. But again I wonder Fernandez had been playing to crowds and Reducanu had been dominating the Jr circuit instead of Covid happening maybe this would not seem as crazy.
Men's side still has semi finals to play and routing for Felix but he has a hill to climb as he has two of the best still standing between him and the finish line. Men's has not been my thing for sometime as it results feels like a foregone conclusion. But with Young Canadians making some noise watching more, just need a couple of these dominate players to retire already.
Then you still have Dabrowski getting forgotten in it all because so few are into doubles, but her and her Brazilian partner are into the Semi's and are the top ranked team remaining.
That is my mostly Canadian bias take so far.
