Since last week Monday Tomas is back on Court, at the moment he is practicing with ATP Pro Michal Tabara (CZE) in Prostejov. The feet is healing faster than expected. Tomas has no more pain and the ankle didn´t swell. This week he has to adapt to the moves on clay and come back to his rhythm. "We will see how the ankle reactis on harder practice. Tomas started to hit from one place without moving on the court, then he started running and playing shots and it was good. He only needs to be careful on swift moves to the side" said Jaroslav. Tomas said "At the end of the week I will decide if I go to Hamburg or wait and start in Dusseldorf. We got a wildcard there [Dusseldorf]." In between Tomas has been doing a lot of excercises, massages as well as excercises in swimming pool. Thanks for Lenka for translation.

Small Interview with Tomas 07 May 2008 | posted by janine

"The first week after Moscow I only tried to walk but in the 2nd week I could start with rehabilitation and I swam a lot. I felt the feet is getting better. Even Dr. Kolar was surprised that the ankle is healing so quickly. So he told me to start playing tennis. I hope I can start running on court at the end of the week that I feel secure with my anjle and don´t care about it when practicing. I would like to play in Hamburg in two weeks and Dusseldorf, because we got a Wildcard there. I want to play some matches before Roland Garros." This interview is in Czech with NOVA. It was last week. Thank you to Jinx for the translation
