The fourth seed's place in the draw will be taken by Germany's Tommy Haas, the highest-ranked unseeded player in the tournament.

As a result, France's Michael Llodra, who was drawn to meet the German in the first round, will take on a qualifier.

Moya, who also pulled out of the Madrid Masters earlier this month, has already qualified for the season-ending Masters Cup.
