Sinner and Djokovic withdraw from National Bank Open ahead of US Open

Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic have withdrawn from the 2026 National Bank Open in Montreal, set to begin on August 1. Both players cited workload management and health concerns after competing in the Wimbledon semifinal and final earlier in July. Carlos Alcaraz had already pulled out due to a wrist injury. The withdrawals highlight ongoing concerns over the crowded ATP calendar, which was extended for Masters 1000 events, leading to player fatigue. Tournament officials expressed disappointment but acknowledged the necessity of players prioritizing their health.
