National Bank Open Tennis
Although Bianca Andreescu was eliminated from the National Bank Open, the week as a whole felt like a win.
The 22-year-old reached the Round of 16 where she fell to China’s Zheng Qinwen 7-5, 5-7, 6-2, on Thursday.
Andreescu was the last Canadian playing in either the women’s singles or doubles tournament.
Nothing but ❤️ for you at your home tournament — and we think you feel the same.
Can’t wait to have you back @Bandreescu_! #NBO22
