Italy’s Matteo Berrettini avoided serious injury in Paris and plans to arrive at Wimbledon “in the best shape possible.”
The 30-year-old was forced to retire from last week’s French Open quarterfinal match against countryman Matteo Arnaldi due to a hip injury. Berrettini had never reached that round before at Roland Garros.
“Leaving Paris with a smile on my face because of the great matches I’ve played and because the scans done over the last few days didn’t detect any significant muscles injuries! I’m already working on my rehab with the goal of getting to Wimbledon in the best shape possible!,” Berrettini posted to Instagram on Monday.
“Throughout these two weeks and especially after my retirement I felt an amount of love and support that made me once again grateful and lucky to have such a great family, team, friends and fan base behind me!”
Berrettini, currently ranked No. 48 in the world, has won 10 singles titles on the ATP Tour. He reached the final at Wimbledon in 2021, losing to Novak Djokovic in four sets.
