I see a lot of threads dedicated to individual players being injured at the moment and withdrawing from whatever tournament they are participating in this week and, ultimately, the 2010 Australian Open.
So, I figured let's merge it all into one thread?
Confirmed Withdrawals
Gilles Simon - knee injury
David Nalbandian - abdominals injuries
Paul-Henri Mathieu - groin injury
Kei Nishikori - elbow injury
Presumed Withdrawal
Juan Carlos Ferrero - ankle injury, retired during match in Auckland.
Status for the Australian Open: not officially withdrawn yet, looks pretty bad, though.
Stanislas Wawrinka - neck injuries, withdrew from Sydney.
Status for the Australian Open: presumably withdrawal, but it's not for sure.
Gael Monfils - shoulder injury, withrew from Sydney.
Status for the Australian Open: his plan is to recover to participate at the Aussie Open, but hasn't decided yet.
Status Unknown
Robin Soderling - shoulder injury (tendinitis), retired during match in Kooyong
Status for the Australian Open: will try to recover for the Australian Open, according to his own comments
Juan Martin Del Potro - wrist injury, withdrawal from semifinal match in Kooyong
Status for the Australian Open: no indications that he will withdraw from the Australian Open at all
Any others? Include nature of withdrawal and probable outlook for the Australian Open. They don't have to be seeded or anything.
