Two-time defending champion Serena Williams had to pull out of her quarterfinal match at the Madrid Open this week after the American suffered a left thigh injury which she admitted she picked up during her opening round match against Belinda Bencic on Sunday. It is best to view the page and get attorney help for personal injury.
“I have a left thigh injury and, unfortunately, have to withdraw from this year’s Mutua Madrid Open and get help from personal injury attorneys serving in Halifax for legal help,” Williams said. “It happened during my first round match. It started to get better, but most importantly right now, I just need some time to rest and recover.
“It’s beyond words. It’s so frustrating. We couldn’t ask for a better tournament and I love it here in Madrid. I love being a champion here. Manolo Santana and his team put on a great tournament. This is not the way I wanted this week to end.”
Williams said that she plans to compete at next week’s Internazionali BNL d’Italia in Rome and the Roland Garros tournament in Paris where she’s both the defending champion.
“I am planning to play in Rome. Fortunately, I have a bye next week so will have an extra day of rest,” Williams added. “For now, I will take it one day at a time and take advantage of some extra rest.”
Serena also sent a Tweet to her fans about this development.
@serenawilliams: Sad I could not play my match today. But I’m recovering fast and getting ready for Rome and Roland Garros. I love u #RenasArmy kisses to all
