## Resource

The Canadian Open has been dealt another huge blow as Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic withdraw from the 2026 National Bank Open, leaving fans and tournament organisers facing familiar questions. Is this becoming a serious problem for one of tennis’ biggest Masters 1000 events? In this video, we break down: • Why Sinner withdrew after Wimbledon • Novak Djokovic’s decision to skip Montreal • The growing trend of top players missing the Canadian Open • Whether the ATP calendar is to blame • How this compares to previous years • What it means for the US Open and the rest of the hard-court swing With Carlos Alcaraz also absent, three of the biggest stars in men’s tennis won’t be competing in Canada. Is the tournament’s position on the calendar no longer sustainable?
