Caty McNally and Roberto Bautista Agut have both been forced to withdraw from the upcoming US Open due to injuries.

McNally reached the doubles final at the Grand Slam in New York for two consecutive years. She finished runner-up both times, alongside partners Coco Gauff in 2021 and Taylor Townsend in 2022.

The 21-year-old missed her hometown tournament at the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati this week due to an elbow injury.

Meanwhile, former world No. 9 Bautista Agut also announced his withdrawal from the major after an injury sustained in a freak accident that happened last month while he was taking care of his horses. The 2019 Wimbledon semi-finalist has reached the fourth round twice at Flushing Meadows.

McNally's withdrawal moves Madison Brengle into the main draw. The 33-year-old reached her career-high ranking of No. 35 in 2015 and is currently ranked at No. 105. Her deepest run at a Grand Slam was at the 2015 Australian Open, where the American reached the fourth round.

Meanwhile, Bautista Agut will be replaced by 25-year-old Japanese player Yosuke Watanuki. Currently ranked at world No. 90, it will be his first time in the main draw of the US Open. He also made his debut appearances at the Australian Open and Wimbledon earlier this year, reaching the second round at both majors. 

McNally and Bautista Agut's withdrawals come after several other big names announced they would be missing the US Open this year.

Other players to have announced their withdrawal include former Wimbledon finalist Nick Kyrgios, who has missed most of the 2023 season after sustaining various injuries.

Moreover, former US Open quarterfinalist Denis Shapovalov has withdrawn due to a knee injury that he has had since Wimbledon. Pablo Carreno Busta also joins the list of those unable to compete this year. The Spaniard has not competed since February due to a serious elbow injury which he is still recovering from.

The list also includes Reilly Opelka, Shuai Zhang, Marin Cilic, and Jan-Lennard Struff.
