Tsonga Out of French Open
And the hits just keep on comin’. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga won’t be reprising his role as the breakthrough player at the French Open. After stunning success at the Australian Open early this year, Tsonga was on everyone’s Players to Watch list.
Due to a knee injury, Tsonga has pulled out before play starts at Roland Garros tomorrow. He also has surgery scheduled for Tuesday to repair the meniscus in his knee. (The article said it was “broken” but meniscus is cartilage in the knee…the proper term would be “torn”…but whatever, it’s just the details, right?)
I’m a little sad Tsonga won’t be in the field - the guy is fun to watch. But I’m glad he’s taking care of his body…it’s kind of his main tool in his profession.
