The North American hard court swing is just around the corner. The last stop of the summer takes place on American cement and culminates at the US Open. But before the New York tournament, other important events to highlight are the Canadian and Cincinnati Masters 1000. However, there is another tournament that, despite being an ATP 500, is one of the most prestigious and always features an entry list full of top players: the ATP Washington.

Among the players who will be present in the capital of the United States next week, names like Alex de Miñaur, the reigning champion, Taylor Fritz, Lorenzo Musetti, Learner Tien, Jakub Mensik, Frances Tiafoe, Arthur Fils, Tommy Paul, and Rafa Jódar stand out, among many others. However, two last-minute absences are noteworthy.

These are the two players who will not participate in the 2026 ATP Washington

One of them will be Félix Auger-Aliassime. After taking Novak Djokovic to five hours and fifteen minutes in the 2026 Wimbledon quarterfinals, the Canadian has decided to take an extra week of rest and preparation for a very special tournament for him, the Canadian Masters 1000, which will be held in Montreal this year. Therefore, the world number four will not be at the ATP Washington.

The same goes for Daniil Medvedev. The former world number one, who reached the quarterfinals last year, has also withdrawn from the list. The Russian, who exited Wimbledon in the third round, will seek to rediscover his form in Montreal and Cincinnati, two tournaments he has already won, while aiming to erase the memories of his performance at the US Open last year.
