Jannik Sinner withdraws from Open 13 Provence Marseille after Australian Open win, organisers in talks with Alexander Zverev

Jannik Sinner will not play his next tournament for a little while after the Australian Open with the Italian withdrawing from Open 13 Provence Marseille leaving a big gap in the tournament's entry list for the ATP 250 between February 5-11.
Top seed Sinner won't play for a second year in a row despite signing up with this time seeing the reasoning being him winning the Australian Open and now he likely won't return until ABN AMRO Open in Rotterdam a few weeks later. He turned around a 0-2 deficit to down Daniil Medvedev 3-2 to win the Australian Open.
He made the final of ABN AMRO (Rotterdam Open) last year against Medvedev no less and so as a result is likely to return there also with it being an ATP 500 prior to stints in Doha, Dubai and Qatar which are all huge events on the ATP Calendar post Australian Open. The tournament organisers are trying currently to fill the void and are looking to add Alexander Zverev to the field who reached the semi-finals of the Australian Open. It will soon be set whether he will play in Marseille or it will be a fairly weak field taking part in the ATP 250 which has already been weakened by the loss of Sinner.
