Wozniacki had withdrawn due to a right ankle injury while world number eight Bencic was out with a lower back injury, the WTA said on its Twitter feed.
Wozniacki’s injury continues a difficult season for the Dane, who was dumped from the opening round of the Australian Open and has now slumped to 34th in the rankings.
Bencic has also had a tough run, losing opening round matches at four of her last five events since the 19-year-old made the final at St Petersburg in February.
