MIAMI (AP) — No. 3-seeded Simona Halep withdrew from the Miami Open before her third-round match Saturday because of a right shoulder injury.
“I wanted to come here to give my best and play many matches, but unfortunately I can’t,” Halep said in a statement.
Halep earned her 400th career win with a comeback victory over Caroline Garcia in the second round. She had been scheduled to next meet Anastasija Sevastova, who advanced to the fourth round.
