Chinese tennis player Shang Juncheng announced via social media on Wednesday that he has successfully undergone foot surgery and is determined to return to the court as soon as possible.
The 20-year-old revealed that the operation was aimed at addressing an injury sustained during the Australian Open.
"After the Australian Open, my foot started causing issues. Over the past few weeks, my team and I consulted extensively with medical experts, and decided to proceed with a minor procedure. The good news is the surgery went smoothly. I can't wait to get back on the court," Shang wrote.
Shang retired due to injury in his first round match against Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina at the Australian Open in January due to foot discomfort. He is currently ranked No. 55 in the world.
