Nadia Petrova, suffering with a torn quad muscle, has withdrawn from the Bausch and* Lomb Championships, and will be replaced by Amelie Mauresmo. Petrova has also withdrawn from the Family Circle Cup. Perhaps Mauresmo would like to play in Charleston, too? She was entered last year, but had to withdraw because of her illness. Petrova won the Family Circle Cup in 2006, but did not enter in 2007. She won in Amelie Island in 2006 and was the finalist in 2007.

ReplyDeleteAmelie is only playing Amelia Is...then she's heading back to Europe to prepare with the French fed cup team for their tie vs. Japan. ;)

Yes, I had forgotten she had to get back for Fed Cup. Kind of disappointing to me; I wanted to see her.
