Dimitrov&rsquo;s run at retiring in 4 straight majors started during his 4th round match against Daniil Medvedev.

After an impressive 5-set victory over Andrey Rublev in the previous round, Dimitrov took on Francis Tiafoe and was down 2 sets to 1 and 1-4 in the fourth set before pulling out. Although unclear what the exact problem was, Dimitrov stated that the reason for his retirement was a combination of everything.&nbsp;<\/p><p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/2025-french-open-order-of-play-day-4-important-matches-to-watch-out-for\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>2025 French Open Order of Play Day 4 &ndash; Important Matches To Watch Out For<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>If that was not enough, his injury woes continued to haunt him at the 2025 Australian Open.
