Seven-time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams withdrew from next week's WTA tournament in Cleveland due to a knee injury, she said on Sunday, Aug. 20, in a video on tournament social media.
The 43-year-old American former world number one said skipping her final planned US Open tuneup was necessary for her to be able to play her best when the year's final Grand Slam event begins in New York on August 28.
Williams indicated a desire to play next year in Cleveland, a sign she looks to compete again in the 2024 WTA campaign. Williams received a wildcard spot into the Cleveland field as well as into the US Open, where she is set to make her 17th main draw appearance. Mirra Andreeva, 16, was to have played Williams in her Cleveland opener but instead will now face German lucky loser Tamara Korpatsch.
