 Alright, so the draw for the Canadian Open is out, we have the men's draw, it's ready to go. Let's start with the withdrawals though, because we have some big names that are pulled out in the last couple of hours. Here it is, we have the Silesh Vili, he's pulled out, we've got Oskar Otto, also pulled out Zverev, as well as pulled out with that injury, that ankle injury. Novak Djokovic can't get into Canada, so therefore can't play, he's pulled out, we've got Jon Esda, he is also pulled out, and Rafa Nadal, the latest withdrawal, the biggest name on the men's side to not be playing in this event due to the abdominal tear that he got at Wimbledon. So here it is, here's the draw, you've got the top 8 seeds getting a buy in the first round, Danil Mevedev, he is the number one seed and he will be getting a buy in the first round. He will take on the winner of Baez, taking on Kirios in the first round, so maybe we're getting a Mevedev vs Kirios second round, how crazy is that? Then you've got Shapovalo vs Diminal, that's a very fun first round match up, winner of that match will take on either Gelanu, the wild card from Canada, taking on Dimitrov, the 16th seed, so again you can see there that Dimitrov taking on Mevedev could be a third round match up, then you've got Schwartzman taking on Fakina, the number 12 seed Schwartzman, winner of that will take on either Ramos Vanoles or Goffan in the second round, then you've got Stan Pavrinka taking on Roussevore, winner of that will play Hubey Hercatch, the number 8 seed in the second round, so there you can see there that top section of the draw is stacked, very tough players for both Mevedev and Hercatch who are the top seeds, let's go to the second section of the draw, we've got Kasparud, number 4 seed gets a buy in the first round, White Hill is awaiting the winner of Mulchan taking on McDonald, we're going at it in the first round, then we've got Bublik taking on Brooksby, winner of that will play either a qualifier or the number 15 seed, Batistaragu in the second round, so Batistaragu vs Rude could be a third round if we go by the seeds, then we've got Nori taking on Nakashima, Nori the number 9 seed, winner of that match will take on either Kitschmenovich or Vanizanshup in the second round, then we've got two qualifiers going at it, the winner of that qualifier battle will take on the number 6 seed, Felix Auger Eliasim, so potentially we could be getting FAA vs Nori which is actually a match that's happened in Los Cabos this week, so that's going to be a fun match up again and potentially we could be getting a quarterfinal between FAA and Rude, second half of the draw now, the third section, we've got Yanik Sinner, number 7 seed, he gets a buy in the first round, winner of that match, sorry he takes on the winner of the qualifier match that's happening in the first round there, so he gets a good start to his tournament, then you've got another qualifier in this part of the draw taking on Runa, winner of that match will take on either Karina Buster or Baratini the 11th seed in the second round, so tough match for Baratini to start and potentially a third round match up between Baratini and Sinner which is fun, then you've got Opelka the 14th seed taking on Moffice, that's interesting, winner of that match will take on either Karatzi or Kressi in the second round, then you've got two more Qualies playing each other, the winner of that qualifier battle will take on the number 3 seed, Steffano City Pass, so Steff's got a nice little start to his draw as to Sinner but Sinner versus City Pass quarterfinal, that is insane, let's hope that happens and also Baratini, he's in that part of the draw too, so it's going to be a fire draw this one, this little section as well, then you've got Rubelev in the final section of the draw, the number 5 seed he gets a buy in the first round, winner of that match between Kranovich and Evans will take on Rubelev in the second round, then we've got Tiafo taking on Bonzi, winner of that match takes on either Murray or the number 10 seed Fritz, nightmare start for Murray, I mean Fritz is a great player not to mention on hardcourts in North America, Taylor Fritz I mean that's not who you want to play Fritz versus Rubelev third round that can be fun, then you've got Chillich the 13th seed taking on Chorich, winner of that match takes on either Serendolo or Hashinov in the second round, then you've got Pospisil taking on Paul, winner of that match takes on the number 2 seed, Carlos Alcárez, so Alcárez versus Chillich 3rd rounds, Alcárez versus Rubelev quarterfinal, there's so many crazy matchups that could be happening and with Rafa and Noly out of this draw and Zverev, it's wide open, I mean the top seeds, the guys, the favourites don't have easy draws, let me know who do you think is going to win this one, do you think maybe someone outside of the top five guys or top four guys do you think we're going to get a random player win this, maybe you know maybe we're going to get an unceded player win this tournament, my pick is Sidney Pass and because he made a final here a few years ago, so I'm going to go with Sidney Pass, I think he's got the easiest draw to start with and if he can avoid Sinner, then maybe he you know maybe that's where you know that's where this tournament is won and lost between Sinner and Sidney Pass but let me know who do you think is going to win this one, I'm going to back Steff to get to get the win just because he's due for a 1000 event hardcore tournament.
