For only the second time Canada has medaled in Olympic tennis.
Montreal's Felix Auger-Aliassime and Ottawa's Gabriela Dabrowski won bronze in mixed doubles tennis on Friday, beating the Dutch pair of Demi Schuurs and Wesley Koolhof 6-3, 7-6.
The win ended a 24-year medal drought for the country. Canada's only other tennis medal was a gold in men's doubles in 2000.
Auger-Aliassime competed in the match hours after falling to Spain's Carlos Alcaraz in the men's singles semi-finals, it was his 10th match of the Olympics and fourth in two days.
The Canadian duo seemed to be coasting to an easy win, taking the first set 6-3 in just 35 minutes and going up 3-0 in the second, but the Dutch players mounted a comeback to force an eventual tie-break.
Auger-Aliassime will have a chance to add another medal to Canada's haul when he faces either Serbia's Novak Djokavic or Italy's Lorenzo Musetti in the bronze medal match.
