Bianca Andreescu!

Back in the seventies, a meniscus injury meant mandatory retirement.

She's muscular and her build puts more pressure on her knees.

I won't be reassured until she's back on a tennis court and playing semis/finals.

Well, why do i hate to be right ?

She just pulled out the january 2 Aukland tourney because of knee issues.

 

[JackSockIsTheBest]

She also pulled out of the Hawaii Open as well.

Congrats to Bianca Andreescu for winning the 2019 Newcomer of the year.

Andreescu was also up for Player of the year but lost to #1 Ash Barty.

An oversight.

Well then, let's petition the tennis authorities to follow in the footsteps of baseball and football, and return to grass from hard rubber, which has caused so much knee and leg grief to players.

It's getting ridiculous.

Serge has the best accent ever lol

Bianca kinda reminds me of a young Azarenka. Very feisty and hard to beat, and is able to mix up play with a ton of variety and aggression.

I have a ton of pictures of her from a bit ago at our local $25k ITF tourney. Met her and she was actually quite nice. Have to find the pictures.

Wouldn't hurt to drop a few pounds, hate to see her go the Nalbandian way

 

[I Am Finnish]

Hope she can play in 2 weeks

 

[Soznie]

I wonder if her knee issues is truly affected by her weight, she doesn't seem as bulky as some people suggest to me. I'm hoping she'd recover soon, she was having a fantastic year in 2019.

Disappointing

 

[TagUrIt]

I’m sure lots of people and a WHOLE country were looking forward to seeing her play. Better to skip the AO and come back stronger rather play and risk a career ending injury.

I think she will make her comeback either in Doha or Dubai

It is a big pity. She'll miss me on AO. I hope, that she will recover as quickly as possible.

 

[Fabresque]

Such a shame. She makes the WTA worth watching for me.

 

[tennisgurl]

My favorite player to watch as of late! Sad about her missing AO. Will come back stronger!

 

[terribleIVAN]

She needs to hire Federer's orthopedist ASAP.

This continues to happen. The writing is on the wall for a very short career unfortunately. Sad.

Totally agree, Bianca brings a spark to nearly every tourney she plays in.

Bummed

There's no way to know. Various players have had issues trouble them over time, but they managed to have it treated enough for their careers to continue. From Serena's life-threatening health issue, Sampras' shin splints to Mary Pierce's back, et al., players still carried on. In Andreescu's case, if her issue is not going to be such a hinderance to her mechanically, she will be back sooner than later, I imagine.

The Queen is coming back!

I do also expect she will skip Miami too

 

[MeatTornado]

She should. If she's not ready for IW then she should just take the extra couple weeks and target a return on clay instead. No need rushing back for 1 hard court event when you haven't played in nearly 5 months anyway.

 

[Enceladus]

Bianca will not defend the title at the US Open. Her statement:

Bummer but I understand. I hope she will play Rome and RG

Unfortunate that she's not defending her title, but understandable. Not like this was her last chance anyway.
