Milos Raonic's injury woes continue to blight progress, withdraws already from 2024 Hong Kong Open

Canada’s tennis star Milos Raonic has withdrawn from the Hong Kong Open. The competition is set to be played in China’s city from January 01, 2024.

In the recent turn of events, Raonic has decided not to take part in the Hong Kong Open. It is not clear why he decided to make such a move. However, the move is a surprising one considering the 32-year-old has only played one match since the US Open.

Raonic did not have a great time at the highest level in 2023 where he hardly managed to secure any notable success on the court. He only played in the main round of the two out of four Grand Slams and on both occasions, he did not manage to qualify for the third round or beyond.

At Wimbledon, he was knocked out after losing the second-round tie to America’s Tommy Paul with a score of 6-4, 7-6, 6-7, 6-4. In the US Open, Raonic was knocked out of the competition after losing the first-round encounter to Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas in straight sets with a score of 6-2, 6-3, 6-4.

Raonic will be hoping that taking an extended break will help him regain his loss when he takes the court in 2024.
