Mikael Ymer to Miss Davis Cup Match Against Tunisia Due to Injury

Mikael Ymer misses this weekend's Davis Cup match against Tunisia.

The Swedish tennis profile is struggling with an injury and has not managed to return in time to join the team, which on Friday and Saturday will play against Tunisia in Partille outside Gothenburg.

He felt that he was too far from being able to train properly this week, says national team captain Simon Aspelin.

It has been a bit back and forth, but he has been injured for a few weeks now. Both we and he had a great hope, but he did not feel that it worked unfortunately.

Previously, his older brother, Swedish singles number one Elias Ymer, has also declined to play in the match, where the winner advances to the first qualifying round of the Davis Cup next year.

Sweden's squad consists of Leo Borg, Olle Wallin, Erik Grevelius and André Göransson.
