Jannik Sinner withdraws from Cincinnati Open due to knee injury

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner has withdrawn from the Cincinnati Open due to a right knee injury. The Italian player stated that despite working with his medical team, he is not yet ready to compete. This decision is a precautionary measure to ensure he is fully recovered for the US Open, which begins on August 30.

Sinner's absence follows the withdrawal of world No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz, who is sidelined with a wrist injury and has not played since April. The simultaneous absence of the top two players significantly alters the field in Cincinnati, leaving Alexander Zverev as the top seed and favorite.

Despite losing 650 ATP points from his previous year's performance in Cincinnati, Sinner's position at the top of the world rankings remains secure with a substantial lead over Zverev. His primary focus remains on physical rehabilitation and preparing for the final Grand Slam of the season.
