Belgian tennis player Alexander Blox withdrew from Roland Garros due to an ankle injury suffered while training on the courts of the Jean Bouin club, located near the tournament.

The athlete said that he twisted his ankle after running into a tarpaulin at the edge of the court, and his side is considering filing a claim for damages, reports Fanpage.

The 21-year-old's coach noted that such a surface should not be located near the playing area, especially given modern trends in tennis, where players are often far behind the baseline.

By the way, the PTPA Players Association has already received complaints about the Jean Bouin courts, and the organizers are now investigating the situation around this site.

Let us remind you that earlier Snigur failed in the second round of the main draw of Roland Garros.
