The US Open kicks off next weekend, but some big names have already ruled themselves out of the tournament. Five years after Emma Raducanu<\/a> made history by lifting the trophy as a qualifier, the Brit has been forced to skip the event due to a stress fracture in her leg. And Jannik Sinner<\/a> announced his withdrawal on Friday as he continues to recover from a right knee injury.<\/p>\n

American stars Sebastian Korda, Hailey Baptiste and Emilio Nava are also among those who won\u2019t be in action, while Laura Siegemund and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina have become some of the most recent withdrawals. Express Sport takes a look at the 16 players who have already pulled out of the final Grand Slam tournament of the season.<\/p>\n

Emma Raducanu<\/p>\n

\"Emma<\/p>\n

The British No. 1 has not played a match since she finished runner-up at Queen\u2019s in June. Raducanu picked up a \u201clower leg niggle\u201d after having to play three matches in two days due to rain delays, and this later developed into a stress fracture, forcing her to miss Wimbledon.<\/p>\n

She did not enter the WTA 1000 events in Canada and Cincinnati, and has already ruled herself out of the US Open on the five-year anniversary of her historic title run as a qualifier.<\/p>\n

\"Jannik<\/p>\n

The world No. 1 has been battling a right knee injury that also forced him out of the Cincinnati Open, and he announced his US Open withdrawal in an emotional statement shared on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven though I have been working hard with my team and my medical staff, we have now had to make the difficult decision that I will not be able to compete at the US Open this year,\u201d Sinner wrote on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been back on court in Monte Carlo over the last couple of days and have realised that I still need more time to recover from my right knee issue. I\u2019m obviously very sad and disappointed, as New York has a special place in my heart. I was very much looking forward to coming back and playing in the electric atmosphere in front of the great fans there.\u201d<\/p>\n
