Sinner, Djokovic, Draper Withdraw From Toronto Masters With Injuries

Three top tennis players—Wimbledon champion Jannik Sinner, 24-time Grand Slam winner Novak Djokovic, and No. 5-ranked Jack Draper—have withdrawn from the 2025 Masters 1000 tournament in Toronto due to injuries. Sinner is recovering from a right elbow injury sustained during Wimbledon, despite which he won the tournament, and he emphasized the need for recovery after winning the Canadian Masters in 2023. Djokovic withdrew because of a groin injury, and Draper is dealing with a left arm injury that will also force him to miss the Cincinnati Masters, leaving him without hard-court tuneup before the US Open. Their absences open the field for players like Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev, and Daniil Medvedev, while replacements such as Roberto Carballes Baena, Sebastian Ofner, and Roman Safiullin have been added to the draw. Draper shared on social media that his injury is not serious but requires full recovery to continue the season, and Sinner highlighted his decision to prioritize health after consulting his team. Djokovic, a four-time Toronto champion, also decided to withdraw to manage his condition ahead of the US Open.
