It has only been the third round at the Canada Masters in Montreal, and already we've seen three big upsets in succession. The first to go was two-time defending champion Andy Murray in his opening match, and then it was No. 2 Rafa Nadal who also lost in the second round yesterday. Tonight, it was No. 3 Roger Federer who was beaten in the third round by Tsonga, the same opponent who beat him at Wimbledon.
Which leaves us with Novak Djokovic, who enters his first tournament as the new World No. 1. He is through to the quarterfinals, winning his first two matches here with relative ease and pushing his record to 50-1 this season. With the rest of the "Big 4" already eliminated, he will be well on his way to win his ATP-tour leading 9th title of 2011.
