The national tennis player is in Barcelona undergoing studies to see the extent of the injury, so his participation in the Masters 1000 rankings in Montreal and Cincinnati remains uncertain.
After the quarter-finals he reached at Wimbledon, it was expected that Christian Garin could repeat the good feelings his time in London left behind. However, in the Gstaad and Kitzbühel tournaments, he ended up saying goodbye early and showing a level far from what he had less than a month ago. Behind these performances, there are physical discomforts. This was made known by the national tennis player through a video on his Instagram account.
Hello everyone, I wanted to tell you that I am in Barcelona for medical examinations, because a few weeks ago I had a little pain in my wrist. I hope it’s not serious and then I’ll tell you how it evolves and when I’ll be back in the competition”, announced the national tennis player, who will recover the number one in Chile next Monday.
Gago features in the Masters 1000 rankings in Montreal and Cincinnati. However, with this announcement and pending the results of medical studies, its participation in North America is a total unknown.
Moreover, after several years, Garin will have to play the previous phases of these tournaments, because he ended up being hit hard by the ATP measure of not giving points to Wimbledon. This would have allowed him to stay close to the top 50 and not fall to 71st place in the rankings.
In any case, his point defense until the end of the season is minimal, so he will have a very good chance of recovering positions on the circuit.
