Apparently, Canada used to have 2 Atp events back in the 80s. We had the Rogers Cup and then we had an atp 250 event in Toronto. This was back in the 80s and now we only have 1 event - the Rogers Cup. Well..I say we should bring it back. Canada needs more atp level events.
It's difficult to justify another tournament in Canada given that tennis is becoming more international. It would be nice to have a Challenger tournament in Toronto, making up a mini Challenger circuit along with Granby and Vancouver leading up to the Canadian Open.
I find it a pity that Vancouver is the week before the Canadian Open; some players have to choose between Vancouver and Canadian Open qualifying.
I like the Granby fans, very supportive and knowledgeable.
It's nice to see that the Vancouver challenger is later in the calendar this year. Players will not have to choose between Vancouver and Canadian Open qualifying this year.
