Home hopes were dashed Wednesday at the ATP Toronto Masters as Canadians Denis Shapovalov and Felix Auger-Aliassime exited in the second round.
Fifth-seeded Shapovalov became the highest-ranked seed to actually lose a match —No. 2 Rafael Nadal withdrew before playing—as he fell 6-1, 6-4 to good friend Frances Tiafoe.
