Gaël Monfils forced to withdraw from Roland-Garros due to wrist injury. The French tennis player was due to face world N.6 Holger Rune Thursday night.

Mon fils had signed an unlikely victory in the first round Tuesday night after being led 4 games to 0 in the fifth set by the Argentine Sebastian Baez. It was his first since returning to the circuit after a seven-month absence, the fault of a recalcitrant right foot. He is due to undergo further examinations Thursday to find out more about how long he has been unavailable.
