A ‘tough decision’ to make, says defending champion
Defending champion Dominic Thiem announced on social media on Wednesday the “tough decision” to pull out of this month’s US Open after failing to recover sufficiently from a wrist injury he picked up in Mallorca in June. The 27-year-old Austrian, who will also miss the remainder of the 2021 season, said he had been making good recovery before feeling renewed pain last week. “It has been a tough decision but I know this is what I have to do,” he said.More Related News
