ATP Montreal 2026: Landaluce and Berrettini are surprised, Cilic advances

The day of the ATP Masters 1000 Montreal 2026 left several important conclusions, with special emphasis on the defeats of Matteo Berrettini and Martín Landaluce, as well as a new victory for Marin Cilic, who continues to show that he remains competitive at 37 years old.

The big surprise of the day was Mariano Navone, who defeated Berrettini 6-3, 6-7(5), and 6-3. The Italian is going through an evident crisis in results and bids farewell too early once again to a major tournament, unable to find the consistency he needs to regain his best level.

Landaluce still not reacting, and Cilic keeps the hope alive

There was no good news for Spanish tennis either. Martín Landaluce missed another good opportunity, falling to Colombian Nicolás Mejía 4-6, 6-4, and 6-3. After the disappointment suffered last week in Los Cabos, the Madrid player records another unexpected setback that fuels doubts about his current form and highlights a certain stagnation in a season where a step forward was expected.

The positive note was provided by Marin Cilic. The Croatian overcame Japanese Sho Shimabukuro 7-6(2) and 6-1, confirming that he is still capable of competing and winning matches in the most demanding scenarios. Each victory is a confidence boost for a player who continues to challenge the passage of time.

Among the other notable results, the victories of Gael Monfils, Cameron Norrie, Gabriel Diallo, Nuno Borges, Miomir Kecmanovic, Alex Michelsen, James Duckworth, Yannick Hanfmann, Daniel Altmaier, Vit Kopriva, and Titouan Droguet stood out, in a day that, despite ongoing weather issues, allowed for progress in the Canadian tournament bracket.
