Sebastian Korda won his first match since the Australian Open against Mackenzie McDonald.
The American started the year in great form, reaching the final of the Adelaide Open (defeated by Novak Djokovic) and then making it to the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, where he had to retire during his match against Karen Khachanov.
After his strong start to the season, Sebastian Korda announced a right wrist injury that kept him out of action for three months. He returned to the courts at the Madrid Open, where he lost in the first round, as well as in the Rome Open.
In his opening match of the 2023 French Open, the world No. 29 had no trouble defeating his compatriot Mackenzie McDonald in three sets. After the match, Korda mentioned that he didn't train during the three months of his injury:
"I put on like 7kg of muscle. Kind of getting back into it. Been a while since I played any tennis. Madrid, Rome, and now here, just kind of getting my feet comfortable again," Korda said.
