I’m actually unhappy to announce that I’ve to withdraw from Roland Garros. I performed with my coronary heart and gave my all in yesterday’s match and sadly, because of a medial meniscus tear in my proper knee, my group and I needed to make a troublesome determination after cautious consideration and session.
I want one of the best of luck to the gamers competing this week and sincerely thank the unbelievable followers for all the love and continued help.
See you quickly.
With love and gratitude,Nole
