Australian tennis star Alex de Minaur has been forced to withdraw from the Olympic men’s singles tournament due to injury. The world No.6 is still battling the same hip complaint that ended his Wimbledon campaign in the fourth round earlier this month. The Australian Olympic Team confirmed on Sunday that despite his omission from the singles, he will still play doubles alongside Alexei Popyrin.
” Australian chef de mission Anna Meares said it was encouraging that de Minaur would join the team in Paris, but cautioned that he was still managing the injury. “It’s really great news — we’re actually expecting Alex to arrive in the village ahead of the official draw and we know he’s been working with his rehab team quite extensively since the conclusion of Wimbledon,” she said.
