Krejčíková withdraws from Prague Open

Tennis player Barbora Krejčíková still hasn't recovered from the ankle injury she sustained during Wimbledon and has had to withdraw from the upcoming WTA tournament in Prague, the organisers announced on Friday at a press conference. The current world No. 12 and Czech No. 3 has not played tennis since the beginning of July, when she had to withdraw from her Wimbledon second round match against the Russian Mirra Andrejeva due to her injury.

If she had played, Krejčíková would have been the highest seeded Czech player in the Prague Open. Marie Bouzková has now become the top-seeded Czech participant in the tournament.
