Nicholas Monroe toppled over a low wall during his third-round doubles match at the United States Open on Sunday, and he spent several minutes on the ground receiving treatment in the seating area of the Grandstand. “I hit my head pretty hard, and I was pretty dizzy as soon as I hit it,” Monroe said. But Monroe said tests had showed that he did not have a concussion, and he did not lose consciousness. He was allowed to return, and he and Donald Young lost to Pablo Carreño Busta and Guillermo García-López, 4-6, 7-6 (4), 6-3. “I guess in tennis, you don’t hit your head anywhere,” he said.
