Moutet Will Not File Complaint After Death Threats from Kotov

The semifinals of the Aix-en-Provence Challenger take place this Saturday. Borna Coric will face Ignacio Buse before the match between Stan Wawrinka and Borna Gojo in Bouches-du-Rhône.

However, the week was marked by the incident between Corentin Moutet and Pavel Kotov during the first round. During the match, the Russian allegedly threatened the Frenchman with death, who later shared the situation on his official X (formerly Twitter) account before deleting the post.

Eliminated in the next round against Reilly Opelka, the 26-year-old player, currently ranked 82nd in the world, addressed his dispute with Kotov but will not file a complaint, as he announced to *La Provence* in recent hours.

"In the past, I’ve also said things I shouldn’t have. There are players who say things on the court that they wouldn’t say off it. It’s important for everyone to know the truth of the situation. I’m not going to file a complaint against him.

If I want to resolve my issues, I’ll address him directly. But I don’t think it’s necessary," stated the Frenchman, who will now participate in the Rome Masters 1000.
