The 25-year-old Pole, ranked world No. 10 by the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP), defeated Finnish player Emil Ruusuvuori in three sets, 6-3, 6-7, 6-2, in their second-round encounter on Tuesday.

Up next for Hurkacz in Montreal is the winner of a match pitting Argentina's Diego Schwartzman against Spaniard Albert Ramos-Viñolas.

Hurkacz in June won his fifth ATP singles title by beating world No. 1 Daniil Medvedev in the final of the Halle Open grass-court tennis tournament in Germany.

The 2022 Canadian Open runs until Sunday.
