Pavlyuchenkova latest to withdraw from US Open

Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova has announced that she will not participate at US Open later this month.

Pavlyuchenkova, 29, posted her decision on her Instagram account.

“I’ve been thinking a lot and decided not to play US Open @usopen this year.

“It wasn’t easy because I hadn’t missed any Grand Slam in my entire carrier.

“Tennis is almost everything for me. The main reason is insecurity, US Open doesn’t provide any guarantees. I don’t feel comfortable to travel to USA in such circumstances.

Thanks WTA and USTA that give us a chance to play. From this moment, every player is on his own. My team and I have decided it would be for the best not to participate.”
