Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard will not play at the ATP tournament in due to shoulder problems. Hugo Gaston replaces him in the main draw.

Like his explosive serves, notably flashed at 235km/h on the second ball, Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard concluded the year 2024 with a cannonball. Winner last Sunday of the Basel tournament, his second trophy on the ATP circuit, the 21-year-old Frenchman subsequently set Bercy on fire where he overthrew the American Frances Tiafoe in the first round. In the next round he lost to the Russian Karen Khachanov to whom he sent 20 aces. This enchanted parenthesis was supposed to continue from Saturday in Metz but the Lyonnais decided this Friday to forfeit.

Suffering from his right shoulder, he threw in the towel. This embarrassment also prevented him from lining up in the round of 16 of the Rolex Masters doubles tournament. Victorious alongside Arthur Fils when he entered the fray, he was unable to defend his chances on Thursday against the duo composed of the Croatian Nikola Metkic and the Dutchman Wesley Koolhof. Nevertheless, “GMP” will reach 30th world ranking on Monday, the best ATP ranking of his careerwho was ranked above 200th place at the start of the season.

Gaston takes advantage of Mpetshi Perricard's package in Metz

The executioner of the Habs at Bercy, Karen Khachanov, will play the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov in the quarter-final during the night session. However, the Russian also withdrew from the Metz tournament. The organizers announced the entries of Hugo Gaston and the Indian Sumit Nagal in the main draw. In the last players claiming a place in the end-of-season Masters will play their last card. Like last year, the masters tournament will be held in Turin, from November 10 to 17.
