Monfils does not play in Cincinnati and returns to Europe

Montreal Canada) – The phase of Frenchman Gael Monfils is not good at all, After missing Roland Garros and Wimbledon due to a right foot injury, he felt the problem again at the Masters 1000 in Montreal, not only did he have to withdraw from his match against Britain’s Jack Draperbut also ended up skipping the Cincinnati Masters 1000.

“Hello friends, rough evening tonight in Montreal. The first exams were not good and I made the decision to return to Europe to consult my medical team. I will give news as soon as possible. Thank you all again for your messages of support and see you soon”, wrote the Frenchman on his Twitter account.

Monfils got two great victories in the Canadian tournament, beating Spaniard Pedro Martínez and North American Maxime Cressy. With his absence in Cincinnati, Australian Nick Kyrgios earns a direct spot in the main draw and will issue an invite, similar to what happened with Brando Nakashima with the withdrawal of Novak Djokovic.
