Stan Wawrinka pulled out of the Italian Open just minutes before his second qualifying match on May 6. The 41-year-old Swiss player cited exhaustion after a grueling first-round win the previous day. Pablo Carreno Busta advanced via walkover.

Wawrinka had battled past Stefano Travaglia in three sets on May 5, winning 4-6, 7-6, 6-1 after two hours and 18 minutes. The victory ended a two-month winless streak but left the former world No. 3 visibly drained. He holds a 6-10 record for the 2026 season so far.
