Sinner sidelined as Eala shines in Toronto
Sinner's Cincinnati Withdrawal
World number one Jannik Sinner has withdrawn from the Cincinnati Open due to a knee injury. The Italian star confirmed he is not ready to compete at the Ohio tournament, dealing a significant blow to the field ahead of the hard-court swing.
Eala Powers Through in Toronto
In contrasting fortunes, Alex Eala has advanced to the third round of the Canadian Open in Toronto, overcoming an ankle injury to defeat McNally. The rising talent continues her strong form on hard courts as she builds momentum heading into the US Open season.
Sabalenka and Norrie Exit Montreal
Meanwhile, top seeds Aryna Sabalenka and Cameron Norrie have exited the Canadian Open in the last 16. Despite Norrie's impressive fightback that saw him save a match point in Montreal, both players fell short of progressing further in the tournament.
