“I’m actually unhappy to say that I’ve to withdraw from Wimbledon this yr,” he wrote on Instagram. “I attempted my hardest to be prepared after my surgical procedure and to have the ability to step on the Wimbledon courts once more. Throughout my comeback, I skilled some ache in my wrist through the week of Mallorca. As a precaution I had it scanned and it got here again displaying a torn ligament in my wrist.
“I attempted every little thing to have the ability to play and I’m dissatisfied to say that I simply didn’t have sufficient time to handle it earlier than Wimbledon – I’ll be again.”
