Renowned Greek tennis player Maria Sakkari (WTA No. 22) has announced her decision to conclude the 2024 season early.
Details: The athlete made this decision due to ongoing discomfort from a shoulder injury.
Quote: “For the past few weeks, my focus has been on recovering from my shoulder injury. Unfortunately, this means I will have to end this season earlier than initially planned. I will return stronger and pain-free. Thank you all for your support. It has been a tough year, but it has taught me a lot. I look forward to seeing you all in Australia,” Sakkari wrote on Instagram.
Recall: Sakkari's last match was in late August, where she was unable to complete her encounter against Wang Yafan in the opening round of the US Open, opting to retire after the first set.
