Story summary

Gabriel Diallo withdrew from Canada's upcoming Davis Cup tie against France due to a leg injury sustained at the National Bank Open last month in Montreal.

The match is scheduled for September and the winner will advance to the Davis Cup Final 8 in November, while the loser will face the first-round qualifier in 2027.

Ranked No. 125 on the ATP Tour, Diallo expressed disappointment over missing the tie but plans to support his team from the sidelines.
