This probably doesn’t come as a big surprise to anyone, but Lindsay Davenport withdrew from Wimbledon earlier today with a knee injury.
The 32-year-old American withdrew from the warm-up Eastbourne tournament earlier this month. She also sat out the clay court season. Who would have thought two months without competitive tennis would cause issues later? […]
How bad is this? I was reading the article about how Carlos Moya pulled out of Wimbledon with a shoulder injury. The lead-off on the article mentioned Moya as a former number one player.
