(Reuters) - Fast-rising Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime said he will have to be more careful with his schedule in the future after pulling out of the French Open with a groin injury. The 18-year-old, seeded 25th, said he had injured his groin playing in Lyon this week where he played in Saturday's final. Several players do that and do two tournaments in a row, but maybe I should learn my lesson. Auger-Aliassime played in Monte Carlo, Barcelona, Madrid, Rome and Lyon in the buildup to the French, losing in the final in the Lyon to Benoit Paire. Alejandro Davidovich Fokina takes his spot in the draw and will face Australian Jordan Thompson in the first round.
