Serena Williams has joined Maria Sharapova on the list of absentee for the WTA Finals and China Opens in order to take
time to heal after playing through injuries all year.
Williams was two wins from
completing a calendar-year Grand Slam at the U.S. Open. According to China Open website the female number one tennis player says she is
''taking a proactive step and withdrawing from tournaments in Beijing
and Singapore to properly address my health and take the time to heal.''
In
2015, Williams won the Australian Open, the French Open and Wimbledon.
But she missed out on becoming the first player since 1988 to win all
four majors in the same season when she lost to Roberta Vinci in the
U.S. Open semifinals.
