Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic and Jack Draper all withdraw from the Toronto tournament
The No. 1-ranked Sinner cited his injured right elbow, which he hurt in a fall in the fourth round at the All England Club on the way to his first title there and fourth major trophy.
He won his first Masters 1000 title in Toronto in 2023.
'Winning that title in Toronto two years ago was the start of a really special moment for me, but after speaking with my team, I have to recover,' Sinner said.
Djokovic blamed a groin injury for his withdrawal from an event he has won four times.
Djokovic lost to Sinner in the semifinals at Wimbledon.

Javier Hernandez launches bizarre tirade in controversial video
Former Manchester United forward Javier Hernandez has released a controversial video of himself on Instagram. United success The Mexican, known as 'Chicharito' played for the club between 2010 and 2015. He scored 59 goals in 157 appearances for United, winning two Premier League titles. Chicharito would later play for clubs teams as Bayer Leverkusen, Sevilla and West Ham United. The 37-year-old currently plays in Mexico for Guadalajara. Controversial video The former Red Devil has faced alienating millions of his former fans by releasing a bizarre video chastising the role of women in modern society. For little apparent reason, Chicharito recorded himself criticising women's place in 2025 and claimed that they were 'failing'. His outrageous tirade on Instagram began by claiming that women 'are eradicating masculinity by making society hypersensitive. He instructed women to 'embrace your feminine energy: nurturing, caring, receiving, multiplying, cleaning, maintaining the home, which is the most precious place for us men.' The former United attacker also asked for women to 'allow' themselves to be led by a man 'who only wants to see you happy.' The striker also claimed that men are failing in modern society due to their 'lack of commitment, putting our partners last, not keeping our word, and not prioritising habits to become admirable.' Finally, he strangely asserted that everyone is frightened to express themselves as we are 'eradicating masculinity' and that women 'must learn to honour masculinity'. Backlash Naturally, the Mexican has faced a backlash against his dated views and has probably already lost a significant amount of goodwill he generated at the club whilst a player. Hernandez separated from his own wife in 2021 and has since spoken on his own failings as a husband during their time together. Follow us on Bluesky: @
