Last minute illness withdrawal for Thiem as Winston-Salem Open misses out on former US Open champion playing moments before

Austria’s tennis star Dominic Thiem has been ruled out of the 2023 Winston-Salem Open.
The decision comes just hours before the 29-year-old was set to play his first-round match of the competition.
The development will be a huge setback for Thiem in his preparation for the upcoming US Open.
The fourth and final Grand Slam of the year is set to begin in less than 10 days’ time where players from all over the world will showcase their talent and fight for the ultimate glory.
Sky Sports Austria reported that Thiem withdrew from the competition because of a 'gastrointestinal' infection.
Previously, he also withdrew from the two Masters events in North America. The reasons for those withdrawals remain unknown.
The development means that the former world number three will enter the upcoming mega-event with hardly any preparation at the Hard Court.
Thiem has an impressive record while playing at the US Open where he won the title, which remains his only Grand Slam, back in 2020 when he defeated Germany’s Alexander Zverev in the final in a five-set thriller with a score of 2–6, 4–6, 6–4, 6–3, 7–6(8–6).
However, since then, the Wiener Neustadt has not played in the quarterfinal or beyond in any of the Grand Slams. This year, he has been knocked out of every Grand Slam from the first round.
