Gael Monfils, expected to lead France in the Davis Cup final next month, says his foot is not a concern and reports feeling "very good" as the team trains for the upcoming tie against Serbia.
Monfils missed practice on Tuesday and underwent an MRI on Wednesday, raising concerns.
"It was planned that I wouldn't practice... I was recovering from a cold," said Monfils, who "took a nap" instead. "Anyway, everything is fine. Like everyone, I have colds... I have the right to blow my nose without everyone thinking I have a crazy virus."
France's team doctor said the MRI showed "inflammation between two bones of the foot" but the problem was "nothing serious."
"If I had a sore foot, I would have said and the captain would have told you the first day," said Monfils. "The press has made a big thing when there's nothing.
"What's a bit annoying is that my relatives called me in a panic... my mother was worried!"
