Jannik after his match went and watched Jodar's match against de Minaur,, Jodar great striker of the ball off both wings and for a tall player moves well and growing up in Madrid understands the playing conditions well
That’s really sad news. I hope he’s well enough for Wimbledon, but a wrist injury? Bah! They’re the worst. I don’t know what his injury is or what prognosis is, but I hope he recovers. He’s one of the most gifted tennis players ever.
With management having a brace splint and using anti-inflammatory treatments it can be successful around 4-6 weeks, of course that depends on the athlete, some heal faster than others, complete rest is a must 'muscle edema in the pronata teres. The pronata teres main function is to pronate ( turn down the palm downward and flex the forearm at the elbow).The good news is there isnt a 'tear'
Thanks Margaret! They better strap him to the sofa because I’d say he’ll find it hard to keep still! Will the brace splint completely stop movement?
Yes the brace splint which he has been wearing since the 1st lot of scans since Barcelona, immobilizes the wrist joint, keeping it in a neutral position to reduce pain and swelling
Thanks again Margaret! Good to have someone with a medical background to brief us. You think this is an injury he can get past? Or will he always be limited, or vulnerable?
As long as he dosent rush back, does his rehab he should be okay, of course there will be ongoing scans to monitor his rehab progress., he also has youth on his side, which for healing is a plus, thank goodness there isnt a 'tear' that would have meant more time off the tour than the 4-6 weeks time line.
Personally I dont think clay has been FAA best surface, even though I cant stand Zverev or his boring game, I feel Zverev's game suits clay better.
