Milos Raonic has not appeared at the National Bank Open since 2018
With just four matches under his belt since returning to the ATP Tour a few months ago, Milos Raonic booked some top-shelf hitting partners to prepare for the National Bank Open.
“But it doesn’t mean that those things just click and transfer to matches. I still have to continue working hard in those moments and hopefully those things do come together.” Raonic, who grew up in nearby Thornhill, Ont., was handed a tough draw for his first-round match Monday night. He’ll face ninth-seeded American Frances Tiafoe – the top eight seeds got byes – on the Sobeys Stadium showcourt.
He reached the final of this tournament in 2013 at Montreal and made it to the Wimbledon final in 2016. Raonic has eight ATP Tour crowns on his resume but a Grand Slam or Masters 1000 title has so far proven elusive. The lone Canadian left in the qualifying draw was eliminated Sunday. Brayden Schnur of Pickering, Ont., dropped a 6-2, 6-1 decision to Australia’s Max Purcell.
“He’s in very good shape,” Sinner said. “Obviously when you don’t play many matches, it’s not easy. So hopefully he can a couple of rounds here, which can help him.”
