Defending champion Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from the French Open before his quarter-final with a knee injury.
Before Monday’s match against Argentina’s Francisco Cerundolo, Djokovic was wearing tape behind his right knee and needed treatment on the same leg early in the second set.
Ruud, who was the runner-up in 2022 and 2023, receives a walkover into the last four.
