The United States Open draw has actually dropped an additional former Grand Slam champ.
Elena Rybakina, the 2022 Wimbledon champion, officially withdrew from the US Open today due to unspecified accident.
" Regrettably, I have to take out coming from my fit today as a result of my traumas," Rybakina mentioned in a claim. "I did not intend to complete the last Grand Slam of the year in this manner but I have to listen to my body system, and I wish I may liquidate the remainder of the year sturdy.
" Thanks to all the supporters that have as well as remain to sustain me, as well as I wish the continuing to be players good luck.".
The separation of Rybakina claimed French qualifier Jessica Ponchet right into the 3rd around on a walkover. Ponchet is going to face either past No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki or Renata Zarazua for a location in the round of 16.
The fourth-seeded Rybakina's withdrawal happens virtually a full week after she revealed her split coming from her train of five years.
