Excerpt: “Bianca Andreescu is the first Canadian to win the Rogers Cup in 50 years.
She was up 3-1 in the first set when American opponent Serena Williams called for a medical timeout.
Less than a minute later, the chair umpire announced that Williams was retiring from the match — later reported to be an upper-back injury — handing Andreescu her second WTA Premier title of the season.
The 19-year-old Andreescu has now won 17 consecutive matches, not counting when she has had to retire from matches due to injury herself.”
