Ruud withdrawals

[Lleytonstation]

#8 in the draw.

Will the AO survive?

Will shake the tennis world.

Was a favorite to win the whole thing...

He is only 23 years old and is already showing signs of being "allergic" to events of such magnitude on hard courts.
Mmm...!

The #8 seed guys!!! Top 7 seed now!!!

This is our future, and no one cares?

I was watching the coverage 3 hours ago and he was on court practicing and was in the gym and seemed fine? What’s the reason?

All about Basilashvili's unsettling power to me, Playa.

Big time bummer. I like Ruud and he had a good draw. Hopefully he can have a breakthrough at RG.

Now whoever wins really doesn't deserve it.

Ankle?

That's what I read. Apparently twisted or rolled his ankle during practice a few days ago. Disappointing for sure.

Also our past. When was the last time a #7 seed withdrawing was a big deal?

The supposed golden age Big 4 era where anyone ranked #5 had a 0% chance to win anyway?

Can they give his spot to a guy who will bring in a lot of Serbian fans?

Probably too big a risk to play 100% when the clay swing is his best shot at big M1000 and GS results. Real shame, and I hope he's able to play a bunch of consecutive majors over the next few years so we can see what his ceiling actually is.

Juan Martin Del Potro was the #6 seed at 2009 USO

Ankle sprain in practice

While many like to mock him, he was actually semi finalist at the WTF (Mickey Mouse tournament, I know...)

In his Twitter withdrawal statement, he talks about being positive.
