CINCINNATI -- CINCINNATI (AP) — Novak Djokovic pulled out of the Cincinnati Open on Monday for what officially was listed as a “non-medical” reason, meaning he will head to the U.S. Open without having played a match in about 1 1/2 months.

Novak Djokovic will no longer compete in the Cincinnati Open this weekend after withdrawing for a "non-medical" reason, per the Associated Press (h/t ESPN).

24-time major winner Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from the Cincinnati Open with the start of the tennis calendar's final major, the US Open, about three weeks away, a tournament official confirmed to the New York Times Monday.
