She is now ranked No. 168.Fresh off her victory at the Western & Southern tournament and runner-up finish at the US Open, No. 10 Victoria Azarenka will face Danka Kovinic on Sunday in an opening-round match that will air on TSN4.
Sunday will also see a battle of three-time Grand Slam champions as No. 16 Stan Wawrinka opens the 2020 tournament against Andy Murray on TSN1.
rolandgarros missed out on a huge opportunity here. These 2 deserve to be on any of the premier courts, not on obscure court no. 7. This one is the very definition of 'must-watch' tv.
I love you Eugene Bouchard 💙
