Major upset! The newly crowned Wimbledon champion suffered a first-round exit with a 0-2 defeat, while Southeast Asian powerhouse Yiela claimed another victory.

On August 6, Beijing time, the second round of the WTA1000 Toronto women's singles saw a major upset as new Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova was routed 0-2 by world No. 70 Mcnally, crashing out in her first match and becoming the first top-eight seed to exit the tournament. Meanwhile, Southeast Asian powerhouse Yiela continued her hot streak, defeating American player Parks 2-1 to advance to the round of 32, extending her winning streak on North American hard courts to six matches. It can be said that Yiela has become one of the hottest players in women's tennis right now.

Noskova faced Mcnally. Noskova, the new Wimbledon women's singles champion and winner of her first Grand Slam title—a remarkable breakthrough—was ranked sixth in the world. She entered the tournament as the No. 6 seed with a first-round bye, then met world No. 70 Mcnally in the second round. The first set was tightly contested, with the score staying close, but Noskova faltered in the tiebreak, losing 6-7. The second set turned into a one-sided affair, with Noskova losing her form, feeling cold, and showing no fight, ultimately losing 6-1. Thus, Noskova suffered a 0-2 defeat, a disappointing and shocking result.

Southeast Asian No. 1 Yiela has undoubtedly become the hottest player at the moment. She recently defeated five top players to win her first WTA 500 title in Washington, a major breakthrough in her career, and her world ranking has soared into the top 20. Then she rushed to Toronto for the tournament, battling back-to-back with no rest. Fortunately, she had a first-round bye, and in the second round she faced world No. 71 Parks. Yiela showcased her hot hand in the first set, winning 6-1 with a variety of shots. In the second set, Parks played more aggressively, overpowering Yiela with her attack and serve, and managed to level the match with a hard-fought 6-4. In the decisive set, Yiela regained her rhythm and took control, dominating with a 6-2 win, eliminating her opponent 2-1 to advance to the round of 32, barely making the cut. It must be said that Yiela has become a red-hot player in women's tennis.
