CINCINNATI, Ohio—Less than 24 hours after their three-set Omnium Banque Nationale final, Victoria Mboko and Naomi Osaka have both withdrawn from the Cincinnati Open.

Mboko, who won her first WTA title at the 1000-level event in Montréal, cited a left wrist injury, while Osaka cited a change in schedule.

Both Mboko and Osaka had received performance byes into the second round of the Cincinnati Open by virtue of reaching the final, as a means of accommodating the quick turnover between the Montréal and Cincinnati tournaments, which ended and began on Thursday.

“If I had to put input, I would say that overlapping is just tough for all players involved, even on the doubles aspect,” said the world No. 2, who revealed she had pushed the tournament to schedule the women’s doubles final on Wednesday to give her time to travel to Cincinnati.

“I think two-week tournaments are tough. I don’t mind them as much but it is tougher when they do overlap because of the conditions. I haven’t practiced yet, but I know from the past that the conditions are quite different. We’ll see how these two weeks go and we’ll see what they decide, whether this format will continue or not.”

Mboko and Osaka’s withdrawals created two new first round matches between lucky losers from the qualifying tournament: Iva Jovic vs. Solana Sierra and Cristina Buçsa and Yuan Yue.
