Matteo Arnaldi reached his maiden Grand Slam semi-final at Roland Garros after fellow Italian Matteo Berrettini retired injured while trailing 7-5, 5-2 in their quarterfinal. Berrettini struggled with a hip injury throughout. Arnaldi, the 104th-ranked player, will now face compatriot Flavio Cobolli in the semi-final, marking an all-Italian clash.
Paris: Matteo Arnaldi moved into his maiden Grand Slam semi-final at Roland Garros after his fellow Italian, Matteo Berrettini, retired from the pair’s quarterfinal clash with hip injury.
Trailing 7-5, 5-2, the former Wimbledon finalist Berrettini was forced to retire with a hip injury, a result that made the 104th-ranked Arnaldi just the second man to win a Roland-Garros quarterfinal by retirement in the Open era.
Berrettini clarified that he started to feel something on serve in the first set, but pushed it out of his mind for as long as possible.
"The match was very tough, and I just didn't really think much of it," he said. "I just kept going and I tried to do my best. It was a really tough task today, but then the more that I was playing, the more I was serving, the more I was hitting forehands, the worse I was feeling."
