The player field for the 31st edition of the Granby National Bank Championships was announced today in Granby, Quebec. The combined ATP Challenger 75 and World Tennis W75 tournament will be held at Tennis St-Luc from July 12 to 19, 2026.

“It’s always a pleasure to welcome professional tennis back to Granby as the North American summer hard-court season gets underway,” said Francis Milloy, Tournament Director of the men’s event. “Each year, this event brings together a strong and competitive field, and 2026 is no exception. With Canadian players featured in both the main draw and qualifying draw of the men’s and women’s events, along with international talent from around the world, we’re looking forward to a week of high-quality tennis for fans in the region.”

The women’s tournament is headlined by Top 100 players Darja Vidmanova (No. 92) of Czechia and Lanlana Tararudee (No. 99) of Thailand. Both are enjoying breakthrough seasons, making their Grand Slam main-draw debuts in 2026 – Tararudee at the Australian Open and Vidmanova this week at Wimbledon. Vidmanova is a familiar face in Granby, winning the doubles title in 2025 alongside Canada’s Sasha Vagramov. Canadians Kayla Cross (No. 197) of London, Ontario, a 2024 finalist, along with Toronto’s Cadence Brace (No. 218) and Katherine Sebov (No. 244), the 2023 runner-up, have all earned direct entry into the main draw.

The men’s field includes former Granby winners August Holmgren (No. 143) of Denmark, the defending champion, and Laval’s Alexis Galarneau (No. 179), who claimed the title in 2023. They are joined by Australia’s Alexander Vukic (No. 104), Great Britain’s Toby Samuel (No. 123), and Newmarket’s Liam Draxl (No. 158), the 2025 runner-up. Vukic, the highest-ranked player in the men’s draw, will be making his Granby debut. He has previously enjoyed success in Canada, notably reaching the third round of the National Bank Open presented by Rogers in Toronto last summer.
