Tommy Paul reflected on his foot injury ahead of the US Open

The season of 2025 has been full of ups and downs for Tommy Paul, as several of his tournaments were affected due to his foot injury. This did not just derail his French Open campaign in the quarterfinals but also affected his Wimbledon Championship, which finished in the second round.

Ahead of the US Open, the American player reflected on his injury, disclosing how this year has been a little different for him in a conversation with Flashscore. Along with this, he also talked about his recovery post-Wimbledon: (as quoted by The Tennis Gazette)

"This year has been a little different than most. I’ve been dealing with a little bit of injury in my foot at Wimbledon, so kind of had a little bit of recovery to do for that, so I sat out of a couple tournaments in the States. It breaks my heart, because I love nothing more than playing tennis in the States, in front of US fans. It’s a lot of the reason that I play. I absolutely love it, so to miss it, it really sucked," said Tommy Paul.

He further opened up on how his foot was 'amazing' before the start of the US Open:

"The foot is actually amazing. The foot’s never felt better. It’s literally the best it’s felt in five years. I’m pretty pumped about that," he added.

During the Wimbledon Championships, Tommy Paul expressed how living in Florida helped him cope with Wimbledon weather, while others were struggling with the heat.
