World number one female tennis star, Serena Williams won’t take part in the China Open anymore after sustaining yet another injury, this time in her knee.
The American tennis star who was due to face Australia’s Sam Stosur on Friday, October 10, 2014, will no longer feature in the games as Stosus will now advance straight into the last four.
She explained that she felt pain during her 6-1 1-6 6-2 win over 13th seed Lucie Safarova on Thursday and has now decided to withdraw from the competition.
‘I started to feel pain this week, ‘It didn’t feel really well last night at all. I almost didn’t go on the court – I did at the last minute. I think it made it a little worse, to be honest.
She also revealed her intention to have a scan on her knee
‘I haven’t had time to get an MRI scan yet, but I’ll do that and see what the problem is.’
