Ruud, Cilic withdraw from US Open before start
The US Open has lost the No. 19 seed before it began, Casper Ruud withdrawing with a back injury picked up training in New York after a practice session on Thursday collapsed inside an hour. Marin Cilic is out too, and two lucky losers, Arthur Gea and Otto Virtanen, inherit their first-round matches.
