STRASBOURG, France — Canada's Bianca Andreescu has withdrawn from the Strasbourg Open after suffering an abdominal injury in her second-round win over Belgian qualifier Maryna Zanevska on Tuesday.
Andreescu, who completed the 6-1, 6-4 win in 65 minutes, said she felt some pain in her side during the second set.
“I will be pulling out of my next match because I did feel a little bit of an ab tear, just a little bit," the seventh-ranked player said. "I don’t want to push it at all for the French Open. I don’t want to take any risks so I have to pull out. Nothing serious though. It’s like a little discomfort.”
