Canadian tennis fans will miss out on seeing one of the country’s premier players at the upcoming Australian Open tournament in January.
Bianca Andreescu confirmed via social media that she will not be participating at the first Grand Slam of the year due to the stress COVID-19 has caused in her personal life along with nagging injuries that continue to plague her.
She posted this on her Twitter account:
The 21-year old has struggled with on-court consistency and remaining healthy enough to participate in tournaments since an incredible 2019 season where she won both the U.S. Open and the Rogers Cup. Since then, she has dealt with a COVID-19 infection, injury woes, and a surprising coaching change.
