The tenth racket of the world Karen Khachanov will miss the ATP-500 tournament in Halle (Germany) with a prize fund of almost €2.2 million, reported on the competition website.
The tournament will be held from June 19 to 25, and its winner will receive 500 rating points and nearly €400,000 in prize money.
“Unfortunately, I won’t be able to compete in Halle this year, although it’s one of my favorite tournaments. I am still worried regarding a small injury received at Roland Garros a couple of weeks ago. Despite all attempts to recover, I did not manage to do it on time, ”Khachanov said.
According to him, he hopes to be in shape for Wimbledon (July 3-16).
For the first time in history, three Russians entered the top 10 ATP rankings
Also, Spaniard Pablo Carreno Busta (19th racket of the world) will not perform in Halle due to problems with the elbow. Serb Laszlo Djere (60) and Spaniard Roberto Carballes Baena (51) will replace him and Khachanov in the main draw of the tournament.
Khachanov reached the quarterfinals of Roland Garros, where he lost to Novak Djokovic.
The betting company Fonbet considers Serb Novak Djokovic to be the Wimbledon favorite. Bets on his victory are accepted with a coefficient of 1.80, on the victory of Daniil Medvedev – with a coefficient of 8.00.
