“I’m really sorry to have to withdraw from the tournament,” said Berrettini, who is dealing with an illness. “I have always enjoyed being and playing here and feeling your incredible support. Thank you to the tournament for their fantastic organization and I hope to see all of you again very soon.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
