Canada's Felix Auger-Aliassime retired from his first-round match against Italian qualifier Andrea Vavassori at the ABN Amro Open on Wednesday due to a toe injury.
Auger-Aliassime, from Montreal, stopped playing after dropping a 6-4 decision in the second set. He had taken the opener 7-6 (3).
In a social media post, Auger-Aliassime said he experienced a toe problem at practice Tuesday and it bothered him again during the match.
"I'll have it taken care of this week," he said. "I'm sad to leave a tournament that I love early, but I hope to be fresh and ready to go for Doha coming up."
The Qatar ExxonMobil Open begins Feb. 17.
The 23rd-ranked Auger-Aliassime was coming off a title last week in Montpellier, France. It was his seventh career ATP Tour title and second this season.
