Canada`s world number 15 Denis Shapovalov withdrew from Roland Garros due to a shoulder injury on Sunday. "I am saddened to share that after consulting with my medical team I have made the difficult decision to withdraw from Roland Garros," the 22-year-old wrote on Instagram. 

"Unfortunately, my shoulder has been bothering me over the last few weeks and, while all medical tests look good, it is for the best to play it safe and rest." Shapovalov was runner-up to Casper Ruud in the Geneva clay court final on Saturday.
