One less Canadian is in contention at the Canadian Open.
Leylah Fernandez dropped a third-round match 6-2, 6-2 against fifth-seeded American Jessica Pegula on Sunday.
Montreal's Fernandez, seeded 26th, had just two break-point opportunities and failed to convert both times. She was broken four times in the straight-sets loss.
Pegula, who was coming off a walkover win in the Round of 64, will next face the winner of a match between No. 11 Ekaterina Alexandrova and No. 34 Jacqueline Cristian.
Her loss leaves Felix Auger-Aliassime and Victoria Mboko as the lone Canadians still competing in singles play at the 1,000-level tournament.
Mboko will face her doubles partner Mirra Andreeva of Russia in a Round of 16 match on Monday.
Montreal's Felix Auger-Aliassime will face France's Terence Atmane in a Round of 32 match in the men's singles tournament on Monday.
Later Sunday, Mboko and Andreeva faced Australia's Ellen Perez and Demi Schuurs of the Netherlands in the Round of 32 of the women's doubles tournament.
