Arthur Fils has withdrawn from the Cincinnati Open.
The 21-year-old Frenchman sustained a stress fracture in his back at Roland Garros that knocked him out of grass-corut season.
Fils returned to action in Toronto and beat Pablo Carreno Busta in his opener before losing to Jiri Lehecka 3-6, 6-3, 6-4. Fils also partnered Toronto singles finalist Ben Shelton in the doubles draw where they won two matches.
French lucky loser Arthur Cazaux replaces Fils in the Cincinnati draw and will play either compatriot Alexandre Muller or American Jenson Brooksby in his opener.
