 With the Canadian Open fast approaching, one of the biggest tournaments of the US Open series and of course the biggest tournament since Wimbledon, if we're going by points and prize money, let's go have a look at the players that are not playing this event because we've had some massive names pulled out over the last couple of days. Starting on the women's side, on Shepa, she's pulled out due to a knee problem that she's had for a while so the Wimbledon finalists will not be playing in one of the biggest tournaments leading into the US Open. Of course she is the finalist from last year at the US Open as well, so has a lot of points to defend. On the men's side, Pablo Carino Bustas pulled out the defending champion of this event he won at last year and a bit of a random result, unfortunately still battling an elbow injury so he won't be playing it, he's also not playing in Cincinnati in a couple of weeks. Nick Kirios also pulling out of another tournament, he's played one match this year, had to play out of Wimbledon of course, hasn't played since the end of last year so another massive tournament missing Nick Kirios and Novak Djokovic. He is the biggest name pulled out of this tournament, of course the Wimbledon Finals as well hasn't played Canada in the last few years so no real surprise I guess to most people but he will not be playing in Canada this year even though he's allowed to because last year of course he wasn't allowed to play Cincinnati Canada or the US Open at this time. So you have it, huge names there, the defending champion, Pablo Carino Bustas and then Djokovic, Kirios, Jabir, massive names and that's only the start, we have plenty more time until the tournament starts. This time next week we'll be underway and of course more names could withdraw. There's a lot of players playing this week as well so we'll keep an eye on what happens with those guys and girls but let me know down in the comments below. Who are you going to miss the most at the Canadian tournament? Of course we've still got massive names playing, of course Alcors is going to be playing, we've got Daniel Medvedev is going to be there as well so you know we do have some of the biggest names as Fiontech, Sabalenka, Rebakken are the big three are going to be there for the ladies so it's not going to be a massive miss I guess with some of these names but of course Djokovic being the biggest name, not playing in Canada yet again, it hasn't played there for so long, let me know down in the comments below who are you going to miss the most out of this tournament?
