Alexei Popyrin defeated Andrey Rublev in the final, 6–2, 6–4 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 2024 Canadian Open. It was his first Masters 1000 title and third career ATP Tour title. Popyrin saved three match points en route to the title, in his third-round match against Grigor Dimitrov.[1] He became the first Australian player to win a Masters title since Lleyton Hewitt in 2003 at Indian Wells,[2] and fourth to do so overall since the category's establishment in 1990. Ranked No. 62, Popyrin was the second lowest-ranked men's singles champion at the Canadian Open, after Mikael Pernfors (ranked No. 95) in 1993, and the lowest-ranked finalist since Harel Levy in 2000.[3]
Jannik Sinner was the defending champion,[4] but lost to Rublev in the quarterfinals.[5] By reaching the quarterfinals, Rublev became just the third player born in 1990 or later to reach the quarterfinals or better at all nine Masters events and all four Majors, after Daniil Medvedev and Grigor Dimitrov.[6]
For the first time since the 2012 Paris Masters, three unseeded players reached the semifinals of the same Masters 1000 tournament.
The top eight seeds received a bye into the second round.
