Marin Cilic in doubt for the Australian Open

Cilic and Del Potro in doubt for the Australian Open

Marin Cilic is likely going to miss the first grand slam event of 2015. He's been battling a right shoulder injury for six months, causing him to miss several tournaments since taking his first U.S. Open title in September 2014.

The Croat told reporters that "considering the full recovery and opportunity for practice, it is highly questionable if I will be able to play."

He hasn't officially withdrawn "since there is still a week or so left to see how things will develop," he told the Associated Press.

The injury also kept him out of this week's Brisbane Open in Brisbane, Australia.
