Will Serena Williams be listed as a singles main-draw entrant for the 2026 National Bank Open in Toronto?

Why: The official National Bank Open (Tennis Canada) coverage for Aug 2, 2026 (the tournament’s live/results and news pages) lists the published main-draw lineups and identifies the tournament wildcards used on day one (e.g. Venus Williams, Katherine Sebov, Cadence Brace, etc.) but does not include Serena Williams. Independent coverage that published the tournament wildcards/main-draw lists (Flashscore, and Canadian Press coverage republished on CKPGToday) likewise lists the players/wildcards and does not include Serena. One report (L’Équipe) mentioned an invitation/discussion was being explored, but the tournament’s published entry/draw and multiple independent news reports dated on or before 2026-08-02 show Serena was not listed as an accepted main-draw entrant or wildcard by 11:59 PM (America/Toronto) on 2026-08-02.
