The 33-year-old Croatian tennis star Marin Cilic, who won the U.S. Open in 2014, reached the final of the grass court Grand Slam five years ago when he lost to Roger Federer.
Former runner-up and many experts’ dark horse for a deep run, Marin Cilic, was forced to withdraw from The Championships after testing positive for COVID.
The Croat was hoping for another extended stay at a Grand Slam after reaching his first Roland-Garros semi-final in early June.
“I am heartbroken to be missing Wimbledon and to see my grass season end this way,” he said on social media.
