Berrettini forced to withdraw from another tournament as injury woes continue

Matteo Berrettini is still struggling with injuries after withdrawing from the 2023 Munich Open.

The Italian tennis player had a tough year, dropping out of the top-20 rankings due to injuries. In 2022, he won titles in Stuttgart and Queen's Club and was undefeated on grass going into Wimbledon, where he had been a finalist in 2021. However, he had to withdraw from the tournament due to an injury just before his match against Christian Garin, a Chilean tennis player.

Since then, Berrettini's season has been challenging. He had to end his season at the Tennis Napoli Cup after losing in the final against his compatriot Lorenzo Musetti. He also missed the Paris Masters. This year, Berrettini has not been able to regain his top form, losing in the early rounds of the Australian Open, Indian Wells, and Miami Open.

Although Berrettini won some matches in Montecarlo, defeating Maxime Cressy and Francisco Cerundolo, he had to withdraw before the round of 16 due to another injury. As a result, he is unable to participate in the BMW Munich Open, where he was seeded as the fourth seed.
