Collin Johns, who has won four of the past five tournaments with brother Ben Johns, sustained an injury Friday during his first match in the mixed doubles bracket at the Takeya Showcase in Fountain View, Calif.
“He was poaching a ball at full extension and his heel slid and it caused a strain or a bruise in his Achilles tendon,” said Ben Johns. “I think he’s seeing the doctor for tomorrow.”
Collin Johns was not available for comment.
He and his partner Allyce Johns had to retire in the match against Erik Lange and Sarah Ansboury. Johns and Jones had won the first game, 11-3. Johns was injured in the second game.
His status for Saturday in the men’s bracket alongside his brother is unknown.
“I would say it’s unlikely he will play,” Ben Johns said. “But we will make that call in the morning.”
