Raonic withdraws from Cincinnati with sore wrist
Milos Raonic
Cincinnati - Al Maghrib Today
World number 10 Milos Raonic of Canada withdrew from the ATP Cincinnati Masters on Tuesday with a left wrist injury, joining a list of high-profile absentees at the US Open tuneup.
Raonic blamed the sore wrist for his first-match loss last week in Montreal to France's Adrian Mannarino.
"My wrist injury has not healed," Raonic said. "I always play well in Cincinnati and will miss the great fans."
The 2016 Wimbledon runner-up becomes the latest in an all-star lineup to skip the US Midwest hardcourt classic with the year's final Grand Slam event less than two weeks away.
Other men's stars missing this week include Roger Federer due to a sore back, world number one Andy Murray with a hip injury, Novak Djokovic, out for the year with an elbow injury, and Stan Wawrinka, missing the rest of the season with a knee injury, as well as ninth-ranked Kei Nishikori and 2016 Cincinnati champion Marin Cilic.
On the women's side, Serena Williams is absent while pregnant and Maria Sharapova, who received a US Open wildcard on Tuesday, is sidelined by a forearm injury.

Paris - Al Maghrib Today
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
