The former Top 10 star was set for a first-round blockbuster against seventh seed and defending finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas. Instead, Belgian Zizou Bergs will step in as a lucky loser to face the Greek.
Berrettini has not competed since last year's US Open, where he retired from his second-round match due to an ankle injury. He went 12-11 in the 2023 season.
