When we already had the printed Australian Open 2026 draw, with all the names underlined and the relevant notes, a last-minute withdrawal occurs. The unfortunate news is for the French player Arthur Cazaux, who won't be able to participate due to an elbow injury he suffered last week in Brisbane. His spot will be taken by the Belgian player Alexander Blockx, who had to retire in the last round of qualifying but now finds luck unexpectedly on his side. Let's hope for no further setbacks with less than 24 hours left before the main draw matches begin.

Cazaux has withdrawn from the Australian Open with an elbow injury. "A small tear in the tendon of my right elbow appeared at the Brisbane tournament..." Blockx comes in as the lucky loser.
