The American tour complicates for Davidovich: out of Cincinnati as well
The Cincinnati Masters 1000 has not yet started, and Spanish tennis has already received another bad piece of news. According to the newspaper MARCA, Alejandro Davidovich has confirmed his withdrawal from the American tournament due to back pain, a decision made preventively in order not to worsen the injury and to arrive in the best possible condition for the last Grand Slam of the season, the US Open.
The Málaga player is going through a season marked by physical difficulties. After having to withdraw from the Canadian tour as well, Davidovich is again forced to modify his schedule just weeks before the start of the New York major. The priority for the Spaniard and his team now is to fully recover his back before returning to competition.
His absence adds to the long list of withdrawals that Cincinnati has accumulated in recent days. Carlos Alcaraz has already announced that he will not defend his title due to a wrist injury he has been carrying since April, while Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic have also decided to withdraw from the tournament, leaving a very different draw than initially expected, with numerous opportunities for other contenders.
For Davidovich, this is another setback in a campaign where he has not been able to find the desired continuity. When it seemed he was ready to tackle one of the most important events of the North American hard court tour, his back pain has forced him to halt once again. The goal now is to complete his recovery and arrive ready to compete at Flushing Meadows, where he will seek to regain sensations and close out the summer with better news.
The withdrawal of the Andalusian also leaves Spanish tennis with an even more reduced presence in Cincinnati, a tournament that has lost several of its main draws even before it has started. Meanwhile, Davidovich will focus all his efforts on recovering in time for the US Open, aware that forcing himself now could jeopardize the decisive stretch of the season.
