Russian tennis player Karen Khachanov withdraws from Wimbledon due to stress fracture
Russian tennis player Karen Khachanov withdrew from Wimbledon. It is reported by TASS with reference to the press service of the tournament.
The reason for the removal of the athlete was a stress fracture. Instead of the Russian, the Argentinean Juan Manuel Serundolo will get into the main draw of the tournament.
Khachanov is the tenth racket of the world. Earlier, due to an injury, Khachanov withdrew from the tournament in Halle, Germany. He was injured at the Roland Garros tournament, where he reached the quarterfinals, in which he lost to Serb Novak Djokovic.
On March 31, the Lawn Tennis Association, which organizes Wimbledon, allowed Russian and Belarusian tennis players who signed a “declaration of neutrality” to participate in the 2023 tournament. Later, information appeared that the athletes agreed to this condition.
