Had to go under the knife
Crutches and special shoe: Ofner “mobile again”
Sebastian Ofner has undergone successful surgery on his left foot. Austria's currently best tennis player announced the news via Instagram.
Due to persistent heel problems, the 28-year-old Styrian had only been able to play on court with severe pain recently, so the new operation was the only sensible decision. "The operation went well, I'm already mobile again," Ofner announced. This is possible thanks to crutches and a special shoe.
It remains to be seen how long the world number 59 will be out of action. The only thing that is certain is that he will not return to the ATP Tour this year.
"I will come back stronger"
Ofner had already undergone surgery on his heel in October 2021 and subsequently had to take seven months off. "I will work hard to come back stronger and get back to where I was," said the Mallorca finalist.
