The top stars of the tennis world are heading to Canada this summer, as Tennis Canada announced Wednesday the official player acceptance lists for the 2017 Rogers Cup presented by National Bank in Toronto and Montreal. Between both cities, the vast majority of the Top 75-ranked players will be competing for the prestigious Rogers Cup titles.
World No. 1 Andy Murray, 10-time French Open champion Rafael Nadal and Wimbledon winner Roger Federer headline the entry list in Montreal, where all of the Top 40 men will be in contention.
“We have another amazing player field this year and our fans are in for a real treat with the current leaders of men’s tennis set to take on the next generation,” said Eugene Lapierre, Rogers Cup Montreal tournament director. “No matter who wins it will be a great champion to add to our illustrious list. We’re looking forward to welcoming all the players and the fans back to Montreal in a few weeks from now. It is shaping up to be one of our best tournaments yet.”
