Toronto Championship Sabelica’s Exit
The world number one seed, Aryna Sabalenka, was unexpectedly eliminated by Russian player Ekaterina Aleksandrova in the round of 16 at the Toronto Tennis Tournament 2026, after a match that lasted two hours and 29 minutes. The loss came with scores of 7-6, 4-6, and 6-4, leading to her exit just weeks before the US Open, which she is aiming to win for the third consecutive time. Also, third seed Jessica Pegula was defeated by Russian player Diana Shnaider, who will face Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals after her victory over Ukrainian Marta Kostyuk. Sabalenka’s unexpected early departure has been considered one of the most significant surprises of the tournament, amid reports suggesting that Aleksandrova was focused on delivering consistent performance and giving her best to secure the win.
