Dominic Thiem recently had another injury setback with a rib injury setting him back after a good end to 2022 during his comeback but the former US Open champion will still play this weekend in the Davis Cup.
This is despite Thiem not arriving for the team bus leaving to go to Rijeka where the clash against Croatia takes place.
Doubts were quickly quelled with Thiem travelling separately with the team which features Dennis Novak, Jurij Rodionov, Lucas Miedler, Alexander Erler.

"He's traveling separately. He's already trained and everything is going according to plan," the ÖTV spokesman gave the all-clear as per SN.
"A small torn muscle fiber in the rib area, but it's not that bad and it should be possible to play in the Davis Cup," as Thiem explained on his return to Austria.

- He's a Cool Dude (and very funny guy). Always fun to be in the presence of Tomasz. Something he mentioned here is what many who have coached at any level can relate to -- "the crazy parents committee". It relates to my coaching experiences in kid's sports. My #1 complaint about coaching kids is Problem Parents!! It can be a very abusive, even violent situation with many parents when it comes to their kid's sports. In the end, it was no longer worth the potential (all too common) altercations for me and I quit. But thanks to Tomasz, I now have a name for those (you?) people: The Crazy Parents Committee.mandoist26-09-2024
