TORONTO – Canada’s Milos Raonic was upset by France’s Gael Monfils 6-4, 6-4 in the quarter-finals of the Rogers Cup.
No. 10 Monfils will play top-seeded Novak Djokovic in the semifinals of the tournament at York University’s Aviva Centre on Saturday.
Monfils and Raonic had solid back-and-forth through both sets, with both using big serves to pin each other to the baseline.
Fourth seeded Raonic tried to be aggressive, charging to the net but Monfils’s slicing volleys painted the line behind Raonic.
