ROME, May 05 (AFP): Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner said Sunday that he will only compete at the French Open if he is fully fit after being forced to withdraw injured from this week's Italian Open.
Italian world number two Sinner announced that he was dropping out of his home tournament in Rome on Saturday as he failed to recover from a right hip injury which forced him to retire from the Madrid Open last week.
"I will only take part in Roland Garros if I am 100 percent fit," said Sinner at a press conference held in Rome.
"I don't want to go into details (of the injury), we thought initially that it wasn't anything serious but the scans showed that there was something that wasn't right.
