Amanda Anisimova is the latest big name to withdraw from the 2026 Madrid Open, with the total number of players to pull out of the combined ATP/WTA 1000 event rising to 23.
After the men’s and women’s draws were made in Madrid on Monday, 21 players had withdrawn across both tournaments, and a further two women have since pulled out.
There are now 13 women and 10 men who have pulled out, including five Grand Slam champions across both draws: Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic, Emma Raducanu, Marketa Vondrousova and Barbora Krejcikova.
The women’s tournament in Madrid got underway on Tuesday, while the opening round in the men’s event will begin on Wednesday.
Aryna Sabalenka and Casper Ruud are the defending singles champions at the clay-court event at Caja Magica.
