Tuesday was a busy day in Montreal with 16 first round matches and 3 second round matches on the schedule.

Monday was the first day of the 2018 Rogers Cup in Montreal with the likes of Venus Williams and Karolina Pliskova in action. The day session was hot and toasty, while the night session was cut short due to rain. Monday’s Set Points post rounds up some of the highlights of the day, as well…
The WTA is rocking back into action with the finals of San Jose and Washington all set, and most players ready to go in Montreal for next week’s Premier 5 stop on the calendar.

Friday’s Set Points provides a round-up of quarter-finals day in San Jose and Washington.
