Tournament recap
🇨🇦Canadian Open 2026
Who the crowd backed, who let them down, and how the field scored.
The players
🇺🇸 L. Tien
9% of the brackets that named a champion picked them.
🇦🇷 T. M. Etcheverry
5% had them lifting the trophy. They went out in R64.
🇺🇸 B. Shelton
Their wins paid out 58,550 points across every bracket in the draw.
🇨🇿 V. Kopriva

Counts every round, so deep runs inflate this.
🇦🇺 A. Walton
Just 0% of the 59 brackets that picked their opening match backed them — the lowest in the draw.
How the field did
48%
1,748 of 3,664 picks called correctly.
48 of 94
matches went against the crowd's majority pick — 51% of the tournament.
Final
6% accuracy, against a 21% median across all rounds.
46 of 94
A bracket built from the majority pick in every match would have beaten 100% of the 110 real entries.
The crowd's bracket is complete; most real entries are not.
Accuracy falls with every round by design — calling a quarterfinal means having had the winner survive three earlier matches first. Compare a round against the same round elsewhere, not against the one before it.
The matches that did the damage
🇪🇸 D. Merida Aguilar def. 🇳🇱 T. Griekspoor
