Hubert Hurkacz Undergoes Knee Surgery

Hubert Hurkacz underwent arthroscopic knee surgery on Monday. The 28-year-old Polish tennis star made the announcement on social media.

Hurkacz withdrew from Wimbledon due to knee issues. He had been dealing with pain, fluid build-up, and other problems that made it hard to train and compete.

The knee surgery is a significant setback for Hurkacz, who is currently ranked No. 39 in the ATP rankings. He had a successful clay-court season, finishing as runner-up to Novak Djokovic in Geneva.

Hurkacz will start his recovery and will only return to competition when he is 110% ready. He expressed gratitude for the support and is looking forward to being back on court.

The surgery was performed by Dr. Bartlomiej Kacprzak, who removed the overgrown synovial membrane causing the inflammation and pain. Hurkacz had torn his right meniscus during his second-round Wimbledon match against Arthur Fils last year.

Hurkacz's injury has impacted his performance this year, with a 15-11 record. He played just one match on grass in 's-Hertogenbosch before withdrawing and also pulled out of the tournament in Halle, which he won in 2022 and was the runner-up in 2024.

The Polish star is focused on his recovery and is determined to come back stronger. He will be watching the rest of the Wimbledon tournament from the sofa this year.

Hurkacz's fans are wishing him a speedy recovery, and he is expected to make a full comeback soon. The exact timeline for his return is not yet known, but he will be working hard to regain his fitness and compete at the highest level.

The knee surgery is a significant step for Hurkacz, and he is taking the necessary time to recover and rehabilitate his injury. He is committed to his training and is looking forward to being back on court soon.
