Tennis star Andreescu wins Canada's athlete of the year award

Washington, Dec 10 (Xinhua) US Open champion Bianca Andreescu became the first tennis player to win Canada's athlete of the year award.
''Wow, I’m so thankful for this award. I was not expecting it and to be the first tennis player to win is even more surreal.None of my success this year would have been possible without the support from all of Canada,'' said Andreescu on Monday.
The title is awarded each year to Canada's top athlete, and Andreescu, 19, put together a strong case throughout her revelatory 2019 season, during which she won her first WTA title at the BNP Paribas Open - a Premier Mandatory tournament - and her second at the Rogers Cup in Toronto, a Premier 5 event that Andreescu grew up attending.
