(Reuters) - Milos Raonic has withdrawn from the U.S. Open due to a persistent wrist injury but plans to return to the Tour later in the year, the Canadian said on late on Wednesday.

The world number 11 last played at the Rogers Cup in Montreal earlier this month, where he lost 6-4 6-4 to Frenchman Adrian Mannarino in the second round, before pulling out of the Western & Southern Cincinnati Open last week due to the injury.
