[Judio]

Is that correct about Nadal??

Tournament website have an article saying that at 1030 this morning he was playing for sure???

[R. Jayakrishnan]

Well, officially he has withdrawn. The tournament might have been hoping for that, and he may have thought of doing that - but now he has withdrawn. Jay

[Judio]

Who would be a tournament director???

Top 2 players out

No Big Names to replace them

[Alex71]

Phau is out from Wien Q, Does he hope to have a SE?

[Judio]

Yes as he reached Tokyo semis he should get the SE

Also Koubek had a WC but is now in directly in Vienna

Who gets the last WC now???

[Nathaliia]

[Björki]

Eleskovic (Ryderstedt makes a comeback in the Southampton Challenger)

[Guest]

gasquet is OUT for Stockholm and probably Madrid, perhaps Lyon and paris. He has a little chance replay this years.

Eleskovic (Ryderstedt makes a comeback in the Southampton Challenger)

Here you have it in words:

Top seed and world number two Rafael Nadal has pulled out of next week's ATP event in Vienna after injuring his knee in practice. There had been media speculation the young Spaniard would not appear but his management confirmed on Friday morning that he would be playing.
They then announced his withdrawal in the afternoon.
"This is the biggest affront in the history of this tournament," said furious tournament director Peter Feigl.
The remaining seeds in the event after Argentine Guillermo Coria also withdrew are David Nalbandian, Gaston Gaudio, Radek Stepanek, Ivan Ljubicic, Tommy Robredo, Fernando Gonzalez and Juan Carlos Ferrero.

[nitsansh]

I guess the SE are Phau in Vienna and Moodie in Stockholm

[PatatRiek]

I wouldn't be surprised it Olivier Rochus pulled out of Stockholm eventually... he had stomach problems the last 4 nights and bad sleep. he's currently still playing the Mons challenger (SF this afternoon)

gasquet is OUT for Stockholm and probably Madrid, perhaps Lyon and paris. He has a little chance replay this years.

what's happened? is it still the same injury? (was it his elbow?) because he made the quarterfinals of Metz...

[Guest]

for gasquet, it's his elbow. he won't play for the rest season
