The first racket of Ukraine will not play in the prestigious tennis competitions in the United States.
Fans will not be able to see the performance of Elina Svitolina and the prestigious tennis tournament of the WTA 1000 series in Cincinnati, USA this year.
It should be noted that in the opening match, the first racket of Ukraine should play against Caroline Wozniacki from Denmark, who returned to professional performances after a more than three-year hiatus.
However, the Ukrainian never entered the court, explaining his decision to health problems.
“Unfortunately, after Wimbledon, I felt pain in my legs, and after Montreal I was advised to undergo an examination, which showed some problems that need to be addressed and rest, so I will not be able to play in Cincinnati this year .
I’m very disappointed that I quit, but I love the fans in Cincinnatus and want to play in front of them, so it’s very difficult, but I have to take the advice the doctor gave me. Today I will do everything to rest and recover for the US Open. Thank you for your understanding,” Svitolina wrote.
