Serena Williams withdrew from US Open 2021 due to a torn hamstring, the tennis star announced on social media on Wednesday.
Serena Williams has pulled out of next week's US Open because of a hamstring injury, the 23-time Grand Slam winner announced on her Instagram page on Wednesday. "After careful consideration and following the advice of my doctors and medical team, I have decided to withdraw from the US Open to allow my body to heal completely from a torn hamstring," wrote the 39-year-old American. Williams, who has not played since a tearful first round exit at Wimbledon when she hobbled off court during the first set against Aliaksandra Sasnovich, is a six-time winner in New York. She won her first Major at the 1999 US Open as a teenager, the first step on her path to a domination of the women's game. Williams, whose ranking has now slipped to 22, last missed the US Open in 2017 because of the birth of her daughter.More Related News
