Since Matteo has already qualified for the ATP Finals. It is wise for him not to compete in Paris. Lately, he has played a lot of tennis and for him to take this break is a good decision. 

Coming to tennis, Berrettini was last seen in Vienna. After winning the first couple of matches, the Italian player came across a roadblock when he faced Carlos Alcaraz. The Spaniard won the match in three intense sets. He has already had a great season as he reached the final of a Grand Slam event for the first time at the Wimbledon Championships 2021.
