The ranking points from eight ATP events and four WTA events, as well as 2020 Roland Garros points for the women if they’re still on there, will all be dropping off.

It's the latest in a year to forget for the 2020 Australian Open champion, who entered this week ranked No. 56 in the race to the WTA Finals.

The trio of Americans join a list of absentees that already includes Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Dominic Thiem, Western & Southern Open officials confirmed Tuesday.

Jennifer Brady will be the top-ranked female, and Tommy Paul the top-ranked male. Coco Gauff will play singles and doubles.

The tie-dyed duo have each rediscovered their 2020 form in Paris after arriving on four-match losing streaks.

Winless on clay in 2021, last year's finalist must find her game quickly or risk losing a bundle of rankings points.

Three-time Roland Garros winner Serena Williams opens against a former Top 25 player, while 2020 Roland Garros finalist Sofia Kenin takes on a former French Open champion.

There are no easy roads to Grand Slam titles on the women’s side these days. Who can survive seven rounds at the most grueling of all, in Paris?

The American No. 1 was also playing her first match since undergoing an appendectomy during the second week of the Australian Open.

"I had surgery in Australia. I had to get my appendix removed. I think that of course was unfortunate. I could use that time as a break to get it together," she told press from Miami.
