Jannik Sinner, reigning supreme atop the world rankings, announced on Friday that he would forgo the US Open, as the right knee injury that has sidelined him since his Wimbledon triumph shows no signs of abating.

世界ランキング首位に君臨するヤニック・シナーは金曜日ウィンブルドン制覇以来、右膝の負傷により戦線を離脱しているが回復の見込みが立たず全米オープンへの出場を断念すると発表した

Having dispatched Alexander Zverev at the All England Club last month to secure a second consecutive title, Sinner subsequently withdrew from the hard-court tournaments in Montreal and Cincinnati, which serve as precursors to the US Open.

シナーは先月オールイングランド・クラブにてアレクサンダー・ズベレフを下し大会2連覇を達成したもののその後全米オープン前哨戦となるモントリオール及びシンシナティのハードコート大会を欠場していた

The 25-year-old Italian penned on X on Friday that he would not attain peak condition by the time the main draw commences on August 30.

25歳のイタリア人は金曜日本戦が8月30日に開幕する時点で万全の状態に達しないとXに綴った

"Despite the relentless efforts of my team and medical staff, I have been compelled to make the arduous decision not to compete in this year's US Open," Sinner posted on X.

チームや医療スタッフと懸命に尽力してまいりましたが今年の全米オープンには出場できないという困難な決断を下さざるを得ませんでしたとシナーはXに投稿した

"Having returned to the court in Monte Carlo over the past few days, it has become evident that a full recovery from my right knee issue will still require considerable time.

ここ数日モンテカルロでコートに復帰しましたが右膝の問題から完全に回復するにはなお時間を要することが判明しました

New York holds a singular place in my heart, and this decision is profoundly agonizing.

ニューヨークは私にとって特別な場所でありこの決断は非常に痛恨の極みです

Having so eagerly anticipated performing before the magnificent fans in that electrifying atmosphere, I am utterly bereft."

あの熱狂的な雰囲気の中で素晴らしいファンの皆様の前でプレーできることを心待ちにしていただけに無念でなりません。」

Sinner was the champion of the 2024 edition, having fallen to Carlos Alcaraz in last year's final.

シナーは2024年大会の覇者であり昨年の決勝ではカルロス・アルカラスに敗れていた

Alcaraz declared on social media on Thursday that, notwithstanding his absence since April due to a right wrist injury, he is fully prepared to compete in New York.

アルカラスは木曜日ソーシャルメディア上で右手首の負傷により4月から離脱しているもののニューヨークでのプレーに万全を期していると表明した

This rivalry between the two titans has come to dominate the men's tennis landscape in recent years, with the pair clashing in the most recent three of the 2025 Grand Slam finals.

この両雄のライバル関係は近年の男子テニス界を席巻しており2025年のグランドスラム決勝のうち直近3大会で激突している

Alcaraz prevailed in their latest encounter with a four-set victory in New York.

アルカラスはニューヨークでの4セットの勝利により最新の対戦を制した

This extinguished Sinner's title defense, which had commenced with a straight-sets dismantling of Taylor Fritz in the 2024 final.

これにより2024年の決勝でテイラー・フリッツをストレートで破って幕を開けたシナーのタイトル防衛は潰えた

Sinner has amassed six titles this year, boasting a record of 44 wins against a mere three losses.

シナーは今年44勝3敗の戦績で6つのタイトルを獲得している

At the French Open, he suffered a staggering collapse in the second round against Juan Manuel Cerúndolo, squandering a two-set lead while laboring under oppressive heat.

全仏オープンでは2回戦でフアン・マヌエル・セルンドロとの一戦において酷暑に苦しみながら2セットのアドバンテージを失うという驚愕の崩壊を喫した

Thereafter, he remained out of action until Wimbledon, where he clinched the title, securing his fifth Grand Slam crown overall.

その後ウィンブルドンまで戦列を離れそこで優勝を果たしグランドスラム通算5勝目を挙げた

This marks the first time Sinner will miss a Grand Slam since his major debut at the 2019 US Open.

シナーが2019年の全米オープンでメジャーデビューを飾って以来グランドスラムを欠場するのは今回が初となる
