Tommy Haas will miss the Australian Open because of a shoulder injury.
The German was a beaten semi-finalist in last year's tournament, the opening Grand Slam of the season.

But his agent revealed the world number 11 had damaged his shoulder while training in Florida and had since seen a specialist in New York.

He will undergo surgery on Thursday.

Tony Godsick, the player's agent, said: "Tommy is very disappointed.

"He was looking forward to starting the year off in Melbourne but is optimistic that he will be back on the court soon. He will start rehab in Florida as soon as he can."

[Experimentee]

Anyone know how many points he will lose after Aus Open and what his ranking will be?

 

[TheBoiledEgg]

Haas loses 450 for making semis at Aus

that takes him down to current pt levels of 18
but it all depends on recovery time and how long he is out for

the next BIG points he has to defend is in Monte Carlo QF (125)
