Women's defending champion Simona Halep has withdrawn from Wimbledon
26 June 2021
The Romanian continues to be troubled by the torn calf she suffered at the Italian Open in May, which also forced her out of the French Open.
Halep, who was to be the second seed behind Australian Ash Barty, won the title in 2019, with the Grand Slam cancelled last year because of Covid-19.
Wimbledon starts on Monday.
