[James P]

Ruptured achilles tendon in the Lille Challenger final he was playing today. Tough injury to come back from at 25, let alone 30.

Good god he's only 30??

 

[The Aceserver]

Terrible news. He was a set and a break up in the match too. Definitely a major injury.

EDIT: Pouille lost the first set, but was up a break in the second.

 

[Shaolin]

Awful news. Always loved his game.

Dang, so sad to hear. I was happy when he came back to play after his dark deep depression. I hope he can come back again.

 

[Legend of Borg]

I thought he was much older for some reason.

I've seen his name around the ATP tour for such a long time now, well over a decade at this point.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Lucas's career has been riddled with injuries for a while now, and yet he tried so hard to come back at the highest level. This is devastating.

Good god he's only 30??

He's already 30?!

 

[Mainad]

He's already 30?!

He will turn 31 in 2 weeks time!

He will turn 31 in 2 weeks time!

He still have 9 more years or more if he wants to keep playing Pro. Bopanna won Slam when he was 43.
