ATP Roland Garros 2026 Alexander Blockx Alex de Miñaur

Last-minute withdrawal in the men's draw at Roland Garros

Pedro de Pablos - 26 May 2026

Last-minute withdrawal in Roland Garros men's draw.

The men's Roland Garros 2026 draw has suffered a significant setback at the last minute, with none other than Alexander Blockx withdrawing. The Belgian tennis player had been having a great clay court season and had emerged as one of the big revelations on the tour in recent months, but his body has had enough after defeating Coleman Wong in the first round. The big beneficiary is Alex de Miñaur, who will avoid facing a tough opponent and advances directly to the third round.

Alexander Blockx has withdrawn from his second-round match, so Alex de Minaur advances to the third round.

Wishing you a speedy recovery Alex 🙏#RolandGarros pic.twitter.com/aGCPBMYgas
