World number one Jannik Sinner has withdrawn from this week's Cincinnati Open due to a bothersome right knee. The 24-year-old Italian announced his absence via tournament organizers, citing a knee issue that has forced him to miss the event.
This withdrawal follows Sinner's decision to pull out of the Canadian Open, another key warm-up event for the upcoming U.S. Open. These setbacks come shortly after the Italian claimed his fifth Grand Slam title at Wimbledon last month.
Sinner stated that he has been working hard with his medical team to address the injury. He is now focusing his efforts on getting ready for the U.S. Open later this month and still expects to be fit for the tournament.
