John McEnroe Rips Hamstring at Rogers Cup Legends Event
John McEnroe pulls his hamstring in a Rogers Cup Match against Michael Chang.
McEnroe dropped to the ground in the second set on Saturday and had to be helped off the court.

Rafael Nadal Knocked Out Very Early in Montreal
In yet another upset, Rafael Nadal was defeated by Ivan Dodig in the second round of the Rogers Cup. Dodig won 1-6 7-6 7-6. This has to be the best win of his career so far!
Nadal was serving for the match at 5-3 in the third set, but was unable to close it out.
It seems like all the seeds are dropping in both the mens and womens draws at the Rogers Cup. Only really Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer left in the mens singles.

Venus Williams Withdraws from Rogers Cup
Former world number one Venus Williams of the United States has withdrawn from the Rogers Cup, which takes place in Toronto this week.
The withdrawal was caused by illness. She had gone to see a doctor on Sunday, and they confirmed she has got a viral illness. She has stated that she is “extremely disappointed” that it turned out this way and she won’t be able to play, but don’t fret tennis fans because there are many more top players who will feature at this week’s tournament in Toronto. Serena Williams, Kim Clijsters, Maria Sharapova and Caroline Wozniacki are just some of the top ladies to headline play this week in Canada.
As a result of Venus’s withdrawal, qualifier Zhang Shuai will step into Williams’ first-round match Tuesday against Ana Ivanovic and Lourdes Dominguez Lino gets the extra spot in the draw.
