Berrettini, who turned 27 on Wednesday, was due to face sixth seed Holger Rune, who advances to the quarter-finals as a result of the Italian's withdrawal and awaits the winner of the match between Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev.
"I'm very sad to announce I will not be able to play my match today in Monte Carlo. I felt some pain in my obliques during my match yesterday. The pain became significantly worse overnight.
