The men’s singles draw of the National Bank Open in Toronto (Open of Canada) was released on Friday, July 25. The Masters 1000 tournament will begin on July 26 and the last August 7.
Alexander Zurio has taken first place in the draw and will expect to channel his 2017 form, where he defeated Roger Federer and received the honor. The first five seeds of men’s drawings include Taylor Furts, Lorenzo Mostei, Ben Shelton, and Holger Ron.
Ferts and Mosety will present a challenge for Zurio, as the couple have scored very successful runs in big tournaments this year. The American defeated Zurio in the Boss Open final, as well as a deep run in Wimbledon before Carlos Alakaraz fell in the semifinals. On the other hand, Mosi scored an incredible run on the soil, which was qualifying for the French Open, along with the semi -finals of the three Masters Tournament at the level.
First round matches, such as Sebastian Offer Rally Opelka, Corentin Mutt vs. Jensen Brooksby, McKenzie McDonald vs David Goffen, and Gail Monfels, Jim Munir, and Jeyo Fonseca, will face high hopes.
For physical reasons, the absence of strong contenders, Carlos al -Caraz, Junk Signner, and Novak Djokovic, for physical reasons, increases the unexpected capacity of what may result.
Let’s take a look at what we can expect in the next two weeks:
Top Half: Alexander Zurio, Lorenzo Mostei, Holger Rone, and Daniel Medvedev make for an exciting half
Badge players: Alexander Zurio (1), Lorenzo Moseti (3), Holger Ron (5), Kisper Road (8), Medvedev’s Danide (10), Keran Karen (11), Francisco Serndolo (14). (24), Alexander (29), Nuno Bourgege (30).
Black horse: Gall monofels
Analysis: Alexander Zurio, who is the top seed of the tournament, is one of the half of the draw, and in the second phase, the winner of the match between Adam Walton and Benjamin Bunzi will face the winner. He qualified for the Australian Open Final, he made a promising season, where he suffered a disappointing loss to Jank sinner.
He eventually went ahead to win his first edition at the BMW Open in Munich and even made it to the Boss Open final this year. However, Zurio struggled to influence major events, and its volatility shape led him to go out prematurely in Wimbledon.
Alexander Zurio may face Matteo Arnaldi and Jovo Fonsika in the third round, followed by the 14th seed, Francisco Serndolo, or a 24th seed, Tayylon Grexpur, with Talen Grexpur. Serindulo can be a hindrance to the top seeds as the former is proud of the head 3-0 against him, and his recent win against German was in Madrid.
The draw also includes Daniel Medvedev, who has proved to be a enthusiastic hard court player but has not received any honor at the level since 2023. In the fourth round, an interesting potential confrontation between Medvedev and Run can fully give a new dimension to the tournament.
In the quarter-finals, Misty and Road can make a promising pair, which will cause Zurio to suffer in the semi-finals as the Italian goes 3-1 beyond his head.
Semi -finals predicted: Lorenzo Moseti Def. Alexander Zurio
Half: Taylor Furts, Ben Shelton, Andre Roblov, and Francis Typho make for strong contenders
Badge players: Taylor Furts (2), Ben Shelton (4), Andre Robio (6), Francis Typho (7), Alex de Minor (9), Jacob Mesk (12), Flavo Coboli (13), Arthur Files (15), Jerry Lehika (19), Alejandro Davidovich Fukina (19), 19) 21). Stephenosis Systepas (23), Brandon Nakashima (25), Gabriel Dialo (27), Lorenzo Songo (28), Cameroon Noori (31)
Black horse: McKenzie McDonald’s
Analysis: Half of the draw is expected to observe some tough competitions between the top three Americans at Tour Ferts, Shelton and Typho. Each of these brings a special X -factor to the table, which makes it a difficult task to predict a clear favorite in the flag.
Ferts, who came from a wrapped grass stain, will see their winning methods to be taken to the hardcort season. It has a very simple draw up to the semi -finals, but there, it needs to set up a possible collision with Andre Rubelov, which has won 11 titles on hardcores. This will be a tough match between the two, as the fertles barely take the lead, 5-4.
Shelton, on the other hand, has some very interesting quarter -final match against Stephanos SistaPas, Alex de Minor, or Francis Tiafo. However, of these three, De Manor has more control over his movement on the hard courts and has won seven titles at his career so far.
Half of this draw, there are some incoming abilities such as Jerry Lehika, Menusic, and Fills, who played some excellent tennis this season. Lehika had a promise time on the grass and qualified for the final in the Queens Club. Menk made history by defeating Novak Djokovic in the final of Miami, while Monte Carlo and Barcelona had deep runs but the road block was targeted due to injury.
Semi -finals predicted: Taylor Furts Def. Ben Shelton
