Continued injury hell for Thiem with new rib injury: "The year didn't start the way I wanted"

Dominic Thiem's 2023 year hasn't started off well with some underwhelming performances down under and now another injury that will keep him away from the courts.

Thiem didn't play well in Australia and his season continues to be a struggle after another injury. He revealed a rib injury on social media explaining that he tore a small muscle in that area. He should be able to return fairly quickly but it's not an ideal start for Thiem who needs a strong result this year.

He wrote:

"Unfortunately, the year didn't start the way I wanted. Especially in Melbourne, I wanted to perform at my best, but I tore a small muscle fiber in my rib. The results show that it's not too bad, and playing at the Davis Cup should be possible. I will try everything in the upcoming week to get fit and practice well."
