block

Teenager Stefanos Tsitsipas outlasted Wimbledon finalist Kevin Anderson on Saturday, winning 6-7 (4/7), 6-4, 7-6 (9/7) to reach the final of the Toronto Masters. Tsitsipas became the first player since 2014 to beat four top 10 players in a Masters 1000 event; Jo-Wilfried Tsonga did it here in 2014. He is the first unseeded finalist in Canada since Nicolas Kiefer in 2008. “I can’t think of a better way to celebrate my birthday than playing a Masters 1000 final,” the winner said.
