Bianca Andreescu - 2019 US Open champion

Bianca Andreescu injury fears mount again as she withdraws from three tournaments


Bianca Andreescu has withdrawn from three upcoming WTA events as injury concerns begin to grown for the Canadian ace.

Andreescu returned to tennis at the Australian Open after a 15-month injury lay-off and appeared to be over her knee problem.

Despite a second round exit, she produced a semi-final run at the Phillip Island Trophy in Melbourne the following week.

However, just as she was about to step up her comeback with tournaments in Adelaide, Doha, and Dubai, agent Jonathan Dasnieres de Veigy has confirmed she will now miss all three.

“The lower body issue she had is not concerning at all but she has to think about the longevity of the season and of her career,” he said.

The 20-year old will now concentrate on her fitness to make sure he is able to play the Miami Open which gets underway on March 22.

Bianca Andreescu won the US Open in 2019 but has only managed to play a handful of events since due to injury.
