2021 National Bank Open Date August 6–15, 2021 Edition 131st (men) / 119th (women) Category ATP Tour Masters 1000 (men) WTA 1000 (women) Surface Hard / outdoor Location Toronto, Ontario, Canada (men) Montreal, Canada (women) Champions Men's singles Daniil Medvedev Women's singles Camila Giorgi Men's doubles Rajeev Ram / Joe Salisbury Women's doubles Gabriela Dabrowski / Luisa Stefani ← 2019 · Canadian Open (tennis) · 2022 →

The **2021 [Canadian Open](/source/Canadian_Open_(tennis))** (branded as the **2021 [National Bank](/source/National_Bank_of_Canada) Open presented by [Rogers](/source/Rogers_Communications)** for sponsorship reasons) were outdoor [hard court](/source/Hard_court) [tennis](/source/Tennis) tournaments played from August 6 to August 15, 2021, as part of the 2021 [US Open Series](/source/US_Open_Series). The men's event took place at the [Aviva Centre](/source/Aviva_Centre) in Toronto, and the women's tournament at the [IGA Stadium](/source/IGA_Stadium) in Montreal. It was the 131st edition of the men's tournament—a [Masters 1000](/source/ATP_Masters_1000) tournament on the [2021 ATP Tour](/source/2021_ATP_Tour), and the 119th edition of the women's tournament—a [WTA 1000](/source/WTA_1000) tournament on the [2021 WTA Tour](/source/2021_WTA_Tour).[1][2]

They were originally scheduled to be played from August 8 to August 16, 2020, as part of the 2020 tennis season. Due to the [COVID-19 pandemic](/source/COVID-19_pandemic), the 2020 edition of the [Canadian Open](/source/Canadian_Open_(tennis)) was postponed to 2021 by [Tennis Canada](/source/Tennis_Canada).

## Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, postponement to 2021

See also: [Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sports](/source/Impact_of_the_COVID-19_pandemic_on_sports), [COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario](/source/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Ontario), and [COVID-19 pandemic in Quebec](/source/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Quebec)

The men's and women's tournaments alternate between Toronto and Montreal annually. On April 11, 2020, pursuant to a request by the province of [Quebec](/source/Quebec) (the [COVID-19 pandemic in Quebec](/source/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Quebec) was the centre of the first wave of the pandemic in Canada) for all cultural and sporting events to be cancelled through August,[3] Tennis Canada announced that the women's half of the Canadian Open, as part of the [2020 WTA Tour](/source/2020_WTA_Tour), would be postponed and held in Montreal in 2021.[4][5]

The men's half of the event was still tentatively scheduled, but was still at risk of cancellation or postponement if the ATP and WTA extended their suspension of play into August, or if Toronto or the province of Ontario made a similar order that also applies to the period.[4][5] Toronto had already cancelled all city-led major events, festivals, conferences, permits and cultural programs until June 30, 2020. Although subject to provincial restrictions on public gatherings, Mayor [John Tory](/source/John_Tory) stated that these did not necessarily bar the hosting of sporting events.[6][7]

On June 17, 2020, Tennis Canada officially announced that the men's tournament had also been postponed[8] to 2021, citing logistical and safety issues that would be present for players and staff even if the event were to be held [behind closed doors](/source/Behind_closed_doors_(sport)), including a [federal health order](/source/Quarantine_Act%2C_2005) requiring 14 days [self-isolation](/source/Isolation_(health_care)) upon arrival for anyone travelling to Canada.[9] As they have been postponed, the men's and women's tournaments will still be held in Toronto and Montreal as per the traditional rotation.[9][8]

On February 1, 2021, [National Bank](/source/National_Bank_of_Canada) was promoted to title sponsor of the tournament, replacing [Rogers Communications](/source/Rogers_Communications), which now serves as presenting sponsor.[10]

## ATP singles main-draw entrants

### Seeds

The following are the seeded players. Rankings are as of August 2, 2021. Points before are as of August 9, 2021.

Because the tournament is being held one week later than the last edition in 2019 and as a result of special ranking adjustment rules due to COVID, the Points before column already reflects either a 50% reduction in the player's 2019 points or the substitution of the player's next best result.[13] Accordingly, the Points defending column has been adjusted to show the greater of (a) 50% of the player's 2019 points and (b) the player's 19th best result.

Following the tournament, players will count either their 2021 points or 50% of their 2019 points, whichever is greater.[14]

In addition, because the tournament is not mandatory in 2021, players may count their next best result instead if that result is better. Accordingly, points after will differ from points before only if the player's 2021 points won exceed points defending.

Seed Rank Player Points before Points defending† Points won Points after Status 1 2 Daniil Medvedev 9,920 300 1,000 10,620 Champion, defeated Reilly Opelka 2 3 Rafael Nadal 7,815 500 0 7,815‡ Withdrew due to left foot injury 3 4 Stefanos Tsitsipas 8,115 (125) 360 8,350 Semifinals lost to Reilly Opelka 4 7 Andrey Rublev 6,005 (180) 90 6,005‡ Third round lost to John Isner 5 10 Denis Shapovalov 3,625 (45) 10 3,625‡ Second round lost to Frances Tiafoe [LL] 6 12 Casper Ruud 3,205 (35) 180 3,350 Quarterfinals lost to Stefanos Tsitsipas [3] 7 13 Hubert Hurkacz 3,118 (45) 180 3,253 Quarterfinals lost to Daniil Medvedev [1] 8 14 Diego Schwartzman 2,913 23 90 2,980 Third round lost to Roberto Bautista Agut [10] 9 15 Félix Auger-Aliassime 2,693 45 10 2,693‡ Second round lost to Dušan Lajović 10 16 Roberto Bautista Agut 2,630 90 180 2,720 Quarterfinals lost to Reilly Opelka 11 17 Gaël Monfils 2,423 180 180 2,423 Quarterfinals lost to John Isner 12 18 Alex de Minaur 2,600 (45) 10 2,600‡ Second round lost to Nikoloz Basilashvili 13 19 Cristian Garín 2,475 (10) 10 2,475 Second round lost to John Isner 14 21 Grigor Dimitrov 2,466 (10) 10 2,466 Second round lost to Reilly Opelka 15 23 Aslan Karatsev 2,287 (15) 10 2,287 Second round lost to Karen Khachanov 16 24 Jannik Sinner 2,745 (40) 10 2,745‡ Second round lost to James Duckworth [Q]

† Due to a change in schedule for the 2021 tournament and COVID ranking adjustment rules, the Points defending column reflects the greater of (a) 50% of the player's 2019 points and (b) the player's 19th best result. Instances of the latter are enclosed in parentheses.

‡ Because the 2021 tournament was non-mandatory, the player substituted his 19th best result instead of the points won in this tournament.
