Boris Becker pulled out of the tournament in Ostrava due to pain in his
wrist. He was supposed to play Damm who is now going to play Stich in
the quarter finals.

Becker still plans to play the tournament in Stuttgart.

Of course. Becker already won a tournament last week. Again,
with two indoor Super 9 events coming up, he is not going to
waste too much energy in Ostrava this week. After some rest,
Becker should be OK in Stuttgart. The thing is that this
wrist injury isn't going to heal completely any time soon.
Becker just has to play with it.

So then his plans to play in Stuttgart may mean that his pulling out of
the Ostrava tourney was more of a precautionary thing rather than
inability to play due to pain in his wrist?

It sounds as if this injury's going to take much longer to fully heal
than he anticipated.
Gosh, sure hope it's not one of those "career-ending" injuries.

*sigh*  And Michael lost to Martin Damm.  Too bad he couldn't have played Becker,
cause this time he'd kill him for sure.  :)
