Physical problems stop Matteo Berrettini again. During the round of 16 match at the Tokyo ATP 500 against the Frenchman Fils, ranked 24th in the world, the Italian was forced to retire due to an abdominal problem. He had already grimaced and shown discomfort during the first set, which was very competitive and won 7-6. Then, at the end of the set, a massage treatment seemed to have given him the strength to continue. However, after a few exchanges in the second set, Matteo was forced to retire, to the great disappointment of himself, the audience, and even his opponent, who appeared genuinely sorry.
The misfortunes and bad luck do not stop for the Roman tennis player. Already in April 2023, he was forced to stop for months due to an abdominal injury, specifically a second-degree tear of the internal oblique muscle.
