Kim Clijsters won't get a chance to defend her Indian Wells' title after withdrawing on Saturday from the US$4.9 million ATP/WTA Indian Wells tournament.
Clijsters, who was seeded second, pulled out with a left-wrist injury. She does not know how long she will be sidelined.
"It is frustrating," said Clijsters. "I felt like I was playing well. This is one of my favourite tournaments so it is very disappointing."
Tournament doctors described the injury as a bruised bone on her left wrist and tendinitis. |
