 Welcome back to Tennis Talk, my name is Cam Williams and Dominic team has officially pulled out of the Australian Open becoming one of the biggest names to pull out of the tournament for 2022. Let's go have a look at his statement that he bought out only a couple of hours ago on Twitter. So this is what team had to say over on Twitter. As you all know, I came back home to Austria to recover after the hard practice sessions I had in Dubai and the slight step back in my preparation. I'm now feeling well again. My wrist is in optimal conditions and I'm practicing normally with a very good intensity. After the short holidays my team and I assessed all matters. We have decided to make some changes to my initial tournament schedule. I will start the season in South America at the Cordoba Open in Argentina at the end of January and therefore I will not play this year at the Australian Open in Melbourne. A city that I love and where I have great memories of unforgettable matches in front of amazing crowds. I will miss the Australian fans but I will be back in 2023. We believe this is the right decision in order to have a good return to competition. For the moment I will remain in Austria for a few more days and then head to practice outdoors. So there you have it. Team pulling out of the Australian Open for next year. And it becomes the second big name. Of course we had Roger Federer pull out on the men's side. We also have some massive names on the women's side that are not playing. No Serena Williams, no Carolina Pliscava, the world number four. Bianco Andresco also pulling out as well. And of course we've got a bunch of players that we don't even know if they're going to be playing at the Australian Open. Rafa we're still not 100% sure. We don't know what Djokovic is doing. So another grand slam champion down. We could be losing a couple more in the next couple of weeks. Let me know down in the comments below. What do you think about this decision from Dominic Teem? Do you think it's smart for him to go and play on the clay courts over in Argentina rather than playing at the Australian Open? I guess not having any warm-up tournaments or anything like that because remember he did pull out of the ATB Cup as well. So Dominic Teem, he becomes the latest player to officially pull out of the Australian Open.
