Talia Gibson defeated Maja Chwalinska 7-5, 6-1 in the R64 of the Canadian Open 2026.
Break points decided it. Both players earned 10, but Talia Gibson converted six while No. 18 seed Maja Chwalinska cashed just three, and the upset lives on the rankings sheet only — the betting market had made the 22-year-old Australian a 55% favorite despite the 51-place gap. A five-break opener swung when Gibson broke in game 12 for 7-5, and the second set turned lopsided as she took 85% of first-serve points and converted all three break chances she saw. The finish arrived in 1 hour, 39 minutes and puts her in the last 32 at the Canadian Open, further along in a season that began at WTA No. 118 and has already climbed as high as No. 55.
Maja Chwalinska: 1 ace, 59% first serves, 7 double faults, 3/10 break points. Talia Gibson: 3 aces, 48% first serves, 5 double faults, 6/10 break points.
