Canada’s Raonic has ailing back, out for Davis Cup Finals

TORONTO (AP) — Canada will not have Milos Raonic for the inaugural Davis Cup Finals next week in Madrid because of a back injury.
He missed the U.S. Open because of a back injury and has played just three official matches this fall.
Raonic said Monday it is “very hard and disappointing” that he will be unable to represent Canada. He plans to “take the appropriate time to get healthy” in anticipation of next season.
Brayden Schnur will replace the 31st-ranked Raonic.
