Tsurenko will play world No. 1 Iga Swiatek of Poland in the next round. The 22-year-old Andreescu from Mississauga, Ont., was the last Canadian remaining in singles tournament play at Roland Garros after Denis Shapovalov of Richmond Hill, Ont., lost to world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz in the men’s bracket on Friday.
In women’s doubles play, Canadians Gabriela Dabrowski and Leylah Fernandez are headed for a third-round showdown. Ottawa’s Dabrowski and Brazilian partner Luisa Stefani take on Fernandez of Laval, Que., and American teammate Taylor Townsend on Monday.
