Alcaraz Withdraws from National Bank Open

Carlos Alcaraz has withdrawn from the National Bank Open in Montreal due to fatigue following his participation in the Paris Olympics semifinals, joining Novak Djokovic in sitting out the event. Alcaraz, who has won the French Open and Wimbledon this year, cited the accumulation of matches as the reason for his withdrawal. Tennis Canada also announced that top-30 players Francisco Cerundolo and Jiri Lehecka will not participate. Marcos Giron, Alexei Popyrin, and Flavio Cobolli will move into the field to replace the withdrawing players. Alcaraz expressed his disappointment but hopes to return to Canada in the future.
