Injured Raonic WDs from Antwerp quarterfinals

Oct 24, 2020

An abdominal strain forced Canadian Milos Raonic to withdraw ahead of his European Open quarterfinal match Friday in Antwerp, Belgium.

The fifth-seeded Raonic was scheduled to face No. 4 Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria, who was awarded a walkover win and will meet either No. 8 Alex de Minaur of Australia or American Marcos Giron in the semifinals of the ATP Tour 250 event.

Raonic, 29, is ranked 19th in the world and coming off a run to the semifinals last week in St. Petersburg, Russia.

He reached a career-high ranking of No. 3 in 2016, the same year he reached the semifinals of the Australian Open and finished runner-up at Wimbledon to Britain’s Andy Murray.
