Match recap

Yannick Hanfmann defeated Flavio Cobolli 7(7)-6(5), 7(7)-6(2) in the R64 of the Canadian Open 2026.

Net play, not clean hitting, swung this upset. Yannick Hanfmann, the ATP No. 45, coughed up 49 unforced errors to ATP No. 9 Flavio Cobolli's 30 and lost the ace count 7-2, yet edged the overall points ledger 92-88 behind 11-of-14 work at net and a sweep of both tiebreaks. Cobolli kept dragging it level, breaking in game 8 of the opener for 4-4 and in game 9 of the second for 4-5, then saving three match points, but his 4-of-10 return on break chances never bought him a set. Hanfmann converted his fourth match point 2 hours, 9 minutes in, and the No. 6 seed leaves the Canadian Open draw in the round of 64.
