·Masters·HardTaylor Townsend defeated Marie Bouzkova 7(7)-6(4), 7-5 — Canadian Open 2026 R64.
Marie Bouzkova and Taylor Townsend: Taylor Townsend leads 3–1 across 4 recorded meetings.
The first-serve gap decided it. Ranked WTA No. 105 to Marie Bouzkova's No. 24, Taylor Townsend won 79 percent of her first-serve points to the No. 21 seed's 63 at the Canadian Open, while Bouzkova, a 55 percent favorite with the betting market, saved 7 of 10 break points yet still finished behind 86-77 on total points. The favorite's push came in game 10 of the second set, a break for 5-5, but Townsend broke for 6-5 in game 11 and served it out, two hours and eight minutes in. The 81-place rankings gap reads as a shock; the series disagrees, as Townsend has now won three straight meetings, all in 2026.
