Matteo Berrettini

Press Conference

MATTEO BERRETTINI: So nothing, I just want to talk to you guys and say personally I'm not going to be able to play tomorrow. I'm not ready to perform and to give my best on court.

I tried everything because this tournament is extra special for me. I have to put away my heart, I would say, use my brain a little bit more, think about what's most important for me, which is my health and not getting injured again, not being away from the courts for months potentially.

It's with a lot of sadness that I have to pull out. Just think about this tournament for 2025 and hopefully nothing is going to happen. Maybe wish that's something is going to happen so nothing is going to happen.

Extra sad again for me pulling out.
