Hubert Hurkacz will not play in the US Open, Iga Świątek is preparing to start in Montreal

After a short vacation by the Polish seaside, Iga is starting the hardcourt season. She's already in Montreal, where the WTA 1000 tournament begins on Sunday.

When is the bracket draw for the Montreal tournament?

In the absence of Aryna Sabalenka (the Belarusian withdrew to rest), Iga will be seeded second. Coco Gauff will be seeded first. This means that Świątek will only face the American in the final. The tournament draw is scheduled for Saturday. The Polish player will have a bye in the first round.

She's never won in Montreal, and her furthest she's reached is the semifinals (in 2023). So perhaps she'll write a new chapter in her career there as well.
