Kyrgios looked tired but recovered from losing the first set in a tiebreak to turn things around in the second. The deciding set was one-sided, however, with Kyrgios yelling at the umpire for a long bathroom break taken by Hurkacz and struggling physically as he slipped to a 7-6 (4), 6-7, (5) 6- 1. . Kyrgios said afterwards: “My body has not been feeling well for the last week. When you stop playing for five, 10 minutes, it doesn’t help your body. My body was so stiff afterwards that I couldn’t move properly. I had a stomach ache. It’s within the rules, so I’m not going to complain, I just completely stiffened up.” Poland’s Hurkacz, who is the only player left to have previously won an ATP Masters title, will face fourth seed Casper Ruud in the semi-finals. The Norwegian made it a miserable day for home hope Felix Auger-Aliassime, handing the young Canadian the heaviest defeat of his career as he slumped to a 6-1, 6-2 defeat. In the women’s event in Toronto, Simona Halep continued her resurgence by beating Coco Gauff 6-4, 7-6 (2), maintaining her unbeaten record in four meetings with the American teenager.
