PARIS — Third seed Elena Rybakina became the latest high-profile withdrawal from the Olympic tennis competition Thursday, hours after the draw was made at Roland Garros.

Kazakhstan’s former Wimbledon champion has pulled out of the singles and mixed doubles in which she was due to partner Alexander Bublik.

No reason was given for her decision.

France’s Caroline Garcia will move into Rybakina’s spot in the draw as the 17th seed, while Australia’s Daria Saville enters the draw as an alternate.
