Even his grass-court stint went well as he reached the finals in doubles at the Queen’s Club Championships, where he partnered with the Frenchman Pierre-Hughes Herbert.
But, the result Opelka might really cherish would be his runner-up title at the Canadian Open. The American defeated the likes of Stefanos Tsitsipas, Grigor Dimitrov, Roberto Bautista Agut, and others to reach the final where he was overpowered by Daniil Medvedev in straight sets.
