A hip injury will force Belinda Bencic out of clay-court events in Madrid and Rome, but the Swiss hopes to return in time for Roland-Garros.
Bencic, one of the best players on the WTA Tour in 2023 with a 20-6 record and two titles, says she has been struggling with the injury for some time.
“I unfortunately will be missing both Madrid and Rome in the next few weeks,” she wrote on Instagram. “I have some discomfort on my hip which I struggled with during the US swing as well, and need to take a little rest and recover to be back at 100 percent for Roland-Garros.”
