Raonic withdraws from U.S. Open with glute injury

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Canadian world number 22 Milos Raonic has pulled out of the U.S. Open with a glute injury, tournament organizers said on Sunday.

Raonic, whose 2019 season has been hit by injuries, has not competed since he retired from a second round match in Montreal during a U.S. Open tune-up in early August.

The 28-year-old former Wimbledon finalist, who reached the fourth round in New York last year, has been limited to 11 events this year due to both back and knee problems.
