Queen's suffers another blow as former Grand Slam semi-finalist withdraws from men’s event

The 2026 Queen's Club Championships men's singles draw has been hit by another withdrawal, with two-time Grand Slam semi-finalist and former Queen's finalist Lorenzo Musetti pulling out due to a thigh injury sustained at the Italian Open that also forced him to miss Roland Garros. Fellow Italian Luciano Darderi has also withdrawn as he recovers from tonsil surgery. These absences join those of Carlos Alcaraz, Valentin Vacherot, and Jack Draper, leaving only three top-20 players in the draw.
