Former World No. 12 Borna Coric announced Wednesday that he underwent surgery on his right shoulder.

The 24-year-old from Croatia said he had the surgery on Tuesday in New York.

"I have been dealing with shoulder pain for some time now and despite trying a whole range of recovery techniques, it was clear a more permanent solution was needed," Coric wrote on Instagram. "After talking to leading doctors together with my team, I decided the best option was to have surgery."
