Polish fans have not had the opportunity to watch Hubert Hurkacz in action for a long time. All because of health problems that do not leave him. The Pole checked on the court for the last time during the Wells Indian, where he lost 4: 6, 0: 6 with Alex de Minaur.
Hubert Hurkacz's great return to the court
Later, however, his staff announced that he had suffered a back injury and he left later tournaments. As a result, the Wrocław residents fell to the 28th place in the ATP ranking.
“I decided to leave the tournament in Munich. Recently, I worked very intensively to achieve the expected results, and I can see the results. I want to return to the court fully healthy, confident and ready to compete. I am getting closer to this goal and you will soon see me in action” – he said on April 10.

In the end, however, the Pole coped with the problems and intends to return to the court. Hubert Hurkacz will take part in the ATP 1000 rank tournament in Madrid, which will start on April 22 and will last until May 4. In the first round, the Wroclaw man received a free fate, so he will start the competition later.
In the second round, the Pole will face the winner of the meeting Benjamin Bonzi – Marin Clicić. The ladder, unfortunately, was so that in the third round he will be able to hit Taylor Fritz, the fourth tennis player in the world.
