Serena and Venus Williams are the furthest down the line stars to pull out from the 2021 Western and Southern Open, which starts off on Saturday August 14, at Ohio’s Lindner Family Tennis Center.
The Williams sisters join Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic as top celebrities who’ve all pulled out.
Serena Williams disclosed that the leg injury she experienced last month at Wimbledon is as yet disturbing her.
This is what Serena Williams had to say in a press release;
”Unfortunately, I will not be playing in the Western & Southern Open next week as I am still in recovery from my leg innury at Wimbledon. I will miss all of my fans in Cincinnati whom I look forward to seeing every summer. I plan to be back on the court very soon.”
Venus, whose justification pulling out was undisclosed, addressed The Cincinnati Enquirer as of late about the fact that she was so eager to get back to Cincinnati for the eighth time. Sofia Kenin, a 2019 semifinalist in Cincinnati, additionally pulled out from the field Tuesday with a foot injury.
