Serena Williams withdraws from Italian Open with knee problem
Serena Williams withdrew from the Italian Open on Tuesday with a recurring left knee injury handing sister Venus a walkover into the third round.
In Tuesday’s statement, the 23-time Grand Slam winner insisted she would still be competing in the French Open later this month.
"I must withdraw from the Italian Open due to pain in my left knee,” Serena said in a statement.
“I will miss the fans and competition at one of my favourite tournaments. I’ll be concentrating on rehab and look forward to seeing you all at the French Open and next year in Rome.”
The French Open starts on May 26. Serena’s withdrawal comes a day after she beat Sweden’s Rebecca Peterson in straight sets to set up a second-round meeting with her older sister Venus. From channels
