AAlejandro Davidovich announced this Monday that he will not participate in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games due to the low back pain that has already prevented him from competing in the Wimbledon tournament. His place will be occupied by Jaume Munar, who appeared as an alternate on the registration list.
The man from Malaga explained that his team of physiotherapists has recommended that he not face a radical change of surface that he would be forced to do if he took part in the Paris Olympic event, which will be played on clay.
And just a week later he must travel to Canada to defend the 360 points achieved last year with his semi-finalist position on the hard court of the ATP Masters 1000 in Toronto.
Debut in a Games
Jaume Munar will occupy the place vacated by Davidovich thanks to his world ranking on June 10 (No. 60), the date that marked the cut-off for the classified list. The Mallorcan would have entered directly then, had it not been that Spain already had the maximum of four places occupied.
The 27-year-old tennis player from Santany will make his debut in the Olympic Games after a first half of the season in which he played in an ATP Challenger final in Aix-en-Provence, in addition to reaching the quarterfinals. of the ATP 250 in C�rdoba and Santiago de Chile.
The change of Munar for Davidovich comes just one day after Pablo Carre�o also announced his withdrawal from the individual draw of the Olympic tournament, whose place will be occupied by Pedro Mart�nez Portero.
