Amanda Anisimova's return post Australian Open halted with Indian Wells withdrawal
WTAThursday, 15 February 2024 at 02:30
Former world number 21 Amanda Anisimova has withdrawn from
the 2024 Indian Wells Open. The competition will be played next month.
As per the latest report, the 22-year-old has announced that
she will not going to be taking part in the mega-event next month. There has
been no reason given officially as to why she will miss the competition.
This is not the first time when Anisimova has decided to
miss a competition as she took an indefinite break from tennis in May last year
for her mental well-being. The recent development will be a major setback for
the player as well as her fans who were excited to see more of the player after
a lengthy break.
The New Jersey-born returned to professional tennis after a
gap of nearly seven months and took part in the ASB Classic in Auckland. Her journey
ended after losing in the second round of the competition to the Czech Republic’s
Marie Bouzkova in straight sets with a score of 6-0, 6-1.
Anisimova then took part in the Australian Open 2024 as well
where had a relatively good outing and was eventually knocked out after losing
in the fourth round to the current world number two and the reigning champion in
straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2.

- Venus Williams should not be given any wild cards. They should be given to younger players only. It is a disgrace to see a senior citizen struggling and moving like a SLOTH out there on court. She looks like Mike Tyson in his last fight. It is a disgrace.
- Old (very old), unimportant, meaningless 'news'. Normally this screams "PAY ATTENTION TO ME". But hard to tell who is seeking the attention??
- A few of the consistent players who had successfully climbed the charts last half of last season look to be for real again (Yastremska, Eala, Lys, Anisimova, and so). Barring injury or exhaustion this could be a Top 20 battle for top spots this season.
- She'll be "stacking" losses.
- Gross, unnecessary, and UNFAIR TO YOUNG COMPETITIVE PLAYERS.
- Thanks for sending It home.
- First round loss as usual, plus she moves like a sloth. It is unbelievable that she actually went 3 rounds with someone. Women tennis needs to be abolished, because if they cannot find quality players or give younger players a chance at these wild cards, there is no use to have their side of the sport exist. It is getting more and more ridiculous. And unwatchable.
- I see Emma has already begun her "reduced" schedule! Ha-ha-ha
- I agree 100% on axing the post-match Runner-up mandatory speech. There is so much wrong with that -- hanging time up to 20 minutes; cameras in your face as you wait on the bench to tell everyone how "amazing" they are, how "amazing" your opponent and his/her team are; pretend how happy it is to finish in Second Place; how much you "love the venue and atmosphere"; what restaurants & shops you visited and so. It's an unnecessary added and RIDICULOUS pressure..
- She can't hide the dropping of sponsors at this point. BTW: Nike reduced their $ponsor$hip last year (people have short memories). Bye, Bye Wilson!
