Carreno-Busta mounts comeback to stun Hurkacz in Canadian Open final

Pablo Carreno-Busta of Spain came back from a set down to mount a superb comeback against Hubert Hurkacz of Poland and win the first ATP 1000 event of his career on Monday (IST). The Spaniard became the first unseeded player to win the tournament since Guilhermo Canas in 2002 after weathering an early storm to shock the eighth seed 3-6 6-3 6-3 in Montreal, reports DPA. Having come through a grueling semi-final encounter with Dan Evans to reach his first ATP 1000 final in singles, the Tokyo 2020 bronze medallist struggled to deal with his opponent’s impressive slew of aces in the first set and saw his serve broken in the sixth game.
