One of the favorites for the title at the Grand Slam’s Wimbledon tennis tournament, Aryna Sabalenka, withdrew in this year’s edition of the tournament. She explained the reasons through a post on social networks.
“It is with a broken heart that I have to inform you that I will not be able to play at Wimbledon this year. I tried everything to prepare but my shoulder didn’t help me. I trained as much as possible today and gave it my all, but my team explained to me that if I participate it will only get worse. This tournament means a lot to me and I promise that I will come back stronger next year”, wrote Aryna Sabalenka.
Aryna Sabalenka is a Belarusian professional tennis player. She is a former world No 1 in both singles and doubles by the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA).
