Grigor Dimitrov, following his early exit from Wimbledon due to injury, took to Instagram to update his fans on his current health status. Revealing the diagnosis from his medical tests, Dimitrov stated, “After some tests and scans, my doctor informed me that I have an abductor tear in my left leg.” Despite the setback, he expressed gratitude for the support received from fans, adding, “I am going to take a little time off, but am already starting on the rehab.”

The Bulgarian tennis star’s injury raises questions about his upcoming tournaments and the necessary recovery period to regain full fitness. Dimitrov’s presence on the tour will be missed as he focuses on rehabilitation to return to competitive form.
