Tommy Paul Issues Alarming Health Update Post French Open Survival

“I loved clay growing up and now I’m back to loving it. I’m really enjoying it out here, and I’m excited for French Open this year. I really, really want to do well this year at the French,” said Tommy Paul before the French Open. His admission is no surprise as he is one of the one of the few Americans who likes playing on the red dirt in Europe. But it looks like his campaign might be over too soon.

Tommy Paul kicked off his French Open run by outsmarting Elmer Møller and navigating the lucky loser’s unconventional style to clinch a four-set win. In the next round, he pulled off a gritty comeback from two sets down against Márton Fucsovics, who had served for the match at 5-3 in the fourth. Even after picking up an injury in the decider, Paul found another gear, brushing off a bizarre service winner that took a wicked bounce and then storming through 12 of the last 14 points to seal the win.

But looks like there is a bump in the road. He has been dealing with a lower abdominal problem. The American will get a scan to get clarity on the seriousness of the injury. However, Paul is determined to play his Round 3 match on Friday against Karen Khachanov.

Paul says he has been dealing with some lower abdominal problem recently.
