Tennis player Gaël Monfils will not participate in the 2022 Roland-Garros tournament, he announced on Monday. The French No. 1 suffers from discomfort in his right heel which prevents him from moving on the court. “I regret to announce my withdrawal from the Open Parc de Lyon (this week, editor’s note) and from Roland-Garros next week. I have been hampered since Monte-Carlo by a heel spurs (bone protrusion, editor’s note) in my right heel“, explains the 22nd player in the world in a message broadcast on Twitter, adding that he will suffer “a small intervention to deal with the problem in order to be able to resume the tournaments as soon as possible“.
