Canadian Open: Zverev match halted twice for medical emergencies
Zverev match halted twice for medical emergencies

Alexander Zverev's opening match at the Canadian Open was twice suspended due to medical emergencies in the stands. The No. 1 seed received a bye into the second round, where he faced Tallon Griekspoor.

Match interruptions

Dutchman Griekspoor forced a decider after losing a close opening set, but in set three, play was paused twice. Chair umpire Aurelie Tourte called for medics when a fan fainted in the stands.

The first interruption occurred when a spectator required medical attention, and the second followed a similar incident. Play resumed after each pause, with the match continuing to its conclusion.
