Elena-Gabriela Ruse Hopes to Bounce Back

Elena-Gabriela Ruse is coming off a successful grass-court swing, reaching the semifinals in Bad Homburg and the quarterfinals in 's-Hertogenbosch. However, she has been unable to build on that momentum and arrives in Toronto on a three-match losing streak. 

The Romanian struggled for consistency before the grass season, playing 12 tournaments and registering multiple main-draw wins only twice. Her best results during that stretch were a semifinal appearance in Linz and a third-round run at the Australian Open. 

This is Ruse's second appearance at the Canadian Open. She made her tournament debut in Montreal last year but was eliminated in the first round.

Peyton Stearns Carries Memphis Momentum

Peyton Stearns reached the quarterfinals in Memphis last week, a confidence-boosting result after an inconsistent run over the past few months. She will now look to carry that momentum into the Canadian Open. 

Overall, Stearns has played 16 tournaments this season and registered multiple main-draw wins only four times. Her standout results include winning the title in Austin and reaching the third round at both the Australian Open and the French Open. 

This is Stearns' second appearance in Toronto. On her previous visit in 2024, she enjoyed an impressive run to the quarterfinals.
