Lorenzo Musetti will not complete at Roland Garros due to injury. The Italian confirmed the news via social media on Wednesday.
“After yesterday’s match, I underwent medical examinations which revealed a rectus femoris injury, requiring several weeks of rest and recovery,” Musetti wrote. “Unfortunately, this means I won’t be able to compete in Hamburg and Roland Garros — news that is incredibly hard to take. A huge thank you to the Rome crowd for your incredible support: that’s exactly why, despite not being 100%, I chose to step on court and give everything I had in my home tournament. I’ll keep you updated.”
The 24-year-old Italian sustained the injury during his fourth-round loss to Casper Ruud at the Internazionali BNL d’Italia in Rome. Musetti reached the semi-finals at Roland Garros last year.
Musetti was also miss the ATP 500 event in Hamburg, scheduled from 17-23 May. The two-time tour-level champion holds a 13-7 record on the season, according to the Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index.
