Denis Shapovalov is Canada's newest tennis sensation.
Shapovalov, Israel-born & Canadian raised of Russian and Jewish decent, defeated Spain's #1 ranked Rafael Nadal in the Men's Third Round matchup of the Rogers Cup in Montreal.
A fortnight later, Shapovalov came back to defeat France's Adrian Mannarino in the Men's Quarter-Final matchup.
There is nothing short this 18 year old lad can't do. In 2016, he won the Wimbledon Junior Singles title, and his accomplishments certainly didn't stop there. Young Denis had been rising steadily fast atop the Canadian Tennis ladder, much to no surprise to those who've known his progress over time.
So now, the nation awaits. Shapovalov will meet Germany 's Alexandre Zverev in the Semi-Final matchup on Saturday (today). By reaching the Semi-Finals, he thus becomes the youngest participant to achieve this feat in a Masters Series (ATP) Tournament.
Way to go, Shapovalov!
