Following a hernia procedure that saw him miss most of the clay-court season, Daniil Medvedev announced he will be making his return to the ATP Tour at the Geneva Open, which kicks off on May 14.
The Russian last played at the Miami Open in March, where he lost to Hubert Hurkacz in the quarterfinals. Subsequently, he announced he would be taking time off to repair an abdominal hernia, a procedure that has kept him sidelined for a few weeks.
Nonetheless, it appears there were no roadblocks in the former World No.1's recovery, as he took to Twitter to confirm his participation at the inaugural event.
"Comeback on track" wrote the 26-year old.

Comeback on track! 👍
