Paris: Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has retired in the fourth round of the French Open after losing the first set 6-2 against Mikhail Youzhny of Russia.
Tsonga called the tournament doctor at 5-2 at the changeover and complained about leg pains. He returned to the court only to lose the next game and then retired — meaning there is no French player left in the tournament.
The 11th-seeded Youzhny reached the quarterfinals at the French Open for the first time. He will next face either fourth-seeded Andy Murray of Britain or Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic.
