Prominent tennis players Emma Raducanu and Jannik Sinner are facing significant absences from the professional tour due to health issues.

Jannik Sinner has officially ended his 2026 season to undergo treatment for knee inflammation, a decision made with medical professionals to prioritize his long-term career. His absence will impact his participation in the ATP Finals in Turin.

Emma Raducanu is also expected to miss the remainder of the season, with a potential return not expected until early 2027. She has been sidelined by a fourth-degree stress fracture in her right leg, which caused her to withdraw from several major tournaments including Wimbledon and the North American hard-court swing. Following these injuries, Raducanu’s world ranking has dropped to approximately 100th place.
