medical time-out (left knee)
van de Zandschulp
saw off an injury concern and rallied from a break down in set three to dispatch Nicolas Jarry. The Dutchman showed the more confident and controlled play initially before Jarry started to find his rhythm, and after an early break in set three it seemed like the momentum was with the Chilean. However, van de Zandschulp dug in, got some returns into play and Jarry conceded his advantage. Jarry didn’t recover from his lapse, quickly conceding a further break and with it the match. Injury News: van de Zandschulp required physio treatment on his left knee after the first game in set three. Commentary: “Jarry made a mess of that, so many errors in the end of this match from him. Botic hung around and the dip happened.” van de Zandschulp 13w 29ue; Jarry 29w 48ue. van de Zandschulp 6/4 4/6 6/3.

medical time-out (right knee/thigh)
Misolic continued his strong summer form with a three-set win over Tomas Martin Etcheverry in Kitzbuhel, sealing the match in just under three hours despite a second-set setback (2:42 hr). The Austrian was far more aggressive throughout, finishing with 34 winners—21 from the forehand wing alone—and moved well despite taking an MTO at *3-4 in the third for the same right knee/thigh issue that had troubled him in Bastad. Etcheverry edged the second set but was second best for most of the contest. Commentary: "A really enjoyable match. High quality from both players. He played really well. The slice became more and more of a factor and he began to have some joy with it." Misolic 34w 43ue; Etcheverry 19w 37ue. Misolic 7/5 5/7 6/3. ---
Misolic
after beating Etcheverry: "It’s amazing to play here on the centre court. I have great memories from here. I played my first ATP match here, and then there was the final. I’m hoping to make the final again."

on her recent return from injury:
"The recovery went quite quickly this time. Two weeks ago I was thinking about playing, but we called it off. It wouldn’t have been the smartest thing. I could have played the week after, but instead we started training on hard court and got ready for this."

injury update
Muchova
on defending points during the hard-court swing: "I am not 100 percent yet. The plan is to fly to Montreal on Wednesday or Thursday, but the team and I are still discussing whether I will play there or at the Masters in Cincinnati. Hopefully I will be at full strength by then and be able to not only defend my points, but also add to them."
On her recent Grand Slam struggles: "Yes, it was on my left hand. I couldn't play a two-handed backhand. So at Roland Garros and Wimbledon I went on the court thinking that I would only play slices. I dared to do it, I thought that if I supported it with a good serve, it would work. But it was very demanding, so those weren't my best tournaments. I've been practicing my backhand for a week now, and my two-handed one too. I hope it lasts and that I'll be playing at 100 percent."
withdrew from Toronto (muscle issue)
Alcaraz
has withdrawn from Toronto. "After many consecutive weeks of competition without rest, I will not be able to play in Toronto this year. I have small muscles issues and I need to recover physically and mentally for what comes next. To the tournament and to my fans in Canada I am very sorry, I will see you next year!"
injury update
Nishioka
after beating Brooksby: "That was a first win since Delray Beach in February. It's been 5 months since I couldn't play tennis as I expected due to a lot of injuries, but I think I'm getting back in good shape. The ranking has dropped quite a bit, but I think I can get into the top again without any problems, so I'll do my best to fight without injuries. I'll do my best to achieve good results in my favorite American season."
