Injuries which have plagued One Jabeur for months on Thursday forced the three-time Grand Slam finalist to withdraw from the US Open.
Officials announced the news in a terse one-line statement, giving no details. But the Tunisian who turns 30 next Wednesday during first round play has been unable to win a match since Wimbledon nearly two months ago.
In the interim, she has turned in a walkover at Washington and lost in her opening match in Toronto.
Jabeur has been dealing with both shoulder problems and a knee injury which have turned her summer into a nightmare, with the former WTA No. 2 currently standing 17th and falling.
Her record this compromised season stands 16-13.
