Uncertain future
Ofner plays at US Open – surgery possible in fall
After the Masters 1000 tournament in Cincinnati, Austria's currently best tennis player Sebastian Ofner has also withdrawn from the US Open dress rehearsal in Winston-Salem due to his persistent heel problems!
According to information from his manager Moritz Thiem on Thursday, he is still scheduled to play at the US Open in New York (starting August 26). What will happen after that remains to be seen, and a (new) operation cannot be ruled out at the moment.
"He will play the US Open, after that everything is still open!"
"We had several appointments with specialists, the injury is the same as he already had. He will definitely play the US Open, after that everything is still open. But if it hurts him again, then we'll have to consider an operation," explained Thiem.
Ofner, who made his last appearance to date in the second round of the Olympics (2:6, 2:6 against Daniil Medvedev) on July 30, is currently feeling a little better.
