Carlos Alcaraz has withdrawn from the National Bank Open Presented by Rogers in Montreal due to fatigue, the tournament announced on Thursday.
"It has been a very long season for me and due to the accumulation of matches and fatigue, I will not be able to play in Montreal this year,” Alcaraz said. "I was really looking forward to coming back to Canada and enjoying the love of the fans. Hope to see everyone in Montreal in the years to come!”
The Spaniard holds a 37-6 record on the season and is still competing at the Paris Olympics, where he is into the semi-finals. Alcaraz has won three titles this year, including majors at Roland Garros and Wimbledon.
