Maria withdraws from Rogers Cup
Maria is out from Rogers Cup, Montreal due to a stomach virus.
Maria said: " It`s unfortunate I had to withdraw late this morning, from the stomach illness I`ve had the last couple of days".
"I was here ready to play the tournament. You just have to make the best decision for your body."
"I haven`t had something like this since I can remember, so for me it`s something different. I was hoping I would recover faster than I did, but I`m certainly not ready to compete yet."
If she recovers fast, the next tournament in Maria`s schedule is Western & Southern Open, Cincinnati.
The tournament begins on August 11th.
