Maxum in race against time to be fit for Open
CDR's Jarkko Maxum will race to be fit for both the singles and doubles draw at the Australian Open after suffering a back scare following his doubles semi final exit in Chennai. Maxum suffered difficulties with his back in he and partner Rob Bowenburg's loss to Jefferson Drake and Martti Korpinen, and is taking every precaution ahead of the Open beginning in Melbourne Park on January 18. He's expected to recover in time, but his preparation will no doubt be affected by this setback.
Vollan withdraws from Sydney, Open
Norway's Kim Vollan has withdrawn from the Medibank International Sydney starting next Monday and is also expected to withdraw from the Australian Open in the coming days. The Norwegian No. 1 has suffered a shoulder strain that will likely keep him out of action until late February.
