French tennis player Corentin Moutet is preparing to return to competition in October after taking a break from the Asian tour due to a wrist injury. Moutet is set to play at the Open du Tennis Club AS Caluire, a tournament near Lyon, on October 9 and 10. The Frenchman had previously announced on September 14 that he would skip the Asian tour to give his wrist time to recover. In a message on social media, Moutet said he needed to return to play at full strength and expressed disappointment about missing the tournaments but remained hopeful of returning to Asia in 2027. Moutet’s wrist injury has been a persistent issue for several months, forcing him to withdraw from the Masters 1000 event in Cincinnati and leading to an early exit from the US Open, where he lost to Danish player Sweeny. The Open du Tennis Club AS Caluire will conclude at the Stade de la Terre des Lièvres, a local venue. The tournament is part of a series of events taking place in the region, with several high-level players expected to compete. The Open du Tennis Club AS Caluire has a history of attracting strong talent. In 2025, the women’s edition of the tournament was won by Elsa Jacquemot, highlighting the event’s growing reputation in the tennis calendar. As Moutet prepares to return to the court, fans and fellow players will be watching closely to see how he fares after his period of absence. His performance at this event could signal a strong comeback and set the stage for future competitions.
