Top tennis contender Jannik Sinner has officially withdrawn from the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows following a persistent knee injury.
The withdrawal significantly alters the tournament bracket, with Carlos Alcaraz now emerging as the primary favorite to secure the men's singles title.
Sinner's exit, alongside Jack Draper's withdrawal, has opened a major opportunity for American players to make a deep run in the final Grand Slam of the year.
