Berdych Moves On as Monfils Retires with Hip Injury
Gael Monfils'
Miami Open came to an abrupt end today.
Deadlocked at 2-2 in the second set with
Tomas Berdych
, Monfils rolled his right ankle sliding into a forehand retrieval, crashing to the court clutching his right hip.

quickly raced over to the fallen Frenchman as the trainer came out at about 12:10 p.m.
Seven minutes later, Monfils returned to continue the match. Unable to push off his right leg, he fell behind triple break point. Berdych hit a forehand winner to break for 3-2.
The No. 17 retired in the following game with Berdych holding a 6-3, 3-2 lead. During the post-match hand-shake, Monfils told the eighth-seeded Czech the hip injury prevented him from continuing.
Berdych, who saved four match points rallying for a 6-7 (4), 7-6 (3), 6-1 win over Bernard Tomic in round three, will face either
Juan Monaco
or
Fernando Verdasco
in the quarterfinals.
