Simona Halep withdraws from Bad Homburg semifinal clash with Andreescu due to a neck injury
WTAFriday, 24 June 2022 at 12:00
Simona Halep and Bianca Andreescu were supposed to play the first semifinal of the Bad Homburg Open but the Romanian was forced to withdraw.
It's a terrible development for Halep who has been working hard these past weeks and playing many matches on the grass to get ready for Wimbledon. She won the event in 2019 and certainly hoped to return to the event in a strong fashion.
It's unclear what type of injury it is or how severe it is but it's probably precautionary due to Wimbledon starting in a couple of days. Andreescu advances via walkover to the final where she will face either Cornet or Garcia.

- I heartily disagree with Stubbs here. I mean c'mon! The whole idea of giving out wildcards is to give new & up-coming players a chance at getting as much circuit match-practice under their belts as possible. And this is a HUGE must and opportunity for these new kids on the block. Why curtail opportunities for these newbies in favour of stalwart monopoly?? That just isn't fair. At least give these lesser known players a chance to become more familiar at playing in bigger tournaments & give them also a chance of getting the crowds behind these underdogs.
