It is a hard blow for Jannik Sinner who waited until the last moments to withdraw from the main draw. The Italian, who is feverish, is "very disappointed", after winning a title in Montpellier and a final in Rotterdam. After feeling unwell during the last training sessions, Jannik does not feel able to play.
His opponent of the day, Arthur Fils, thus advances directly to the quarter-finals of the Open 13 Provence and will face Stan Wawrinka for the clash of generations tomorrow.
