ANDREA Petkovic has withdrawn from the Australian Open with a stress fracture in her lower back that could keep her sidelined for two months.
The 24-year-old German player was seeded 10th at the Australian Open, which begins Monday at Melbourne Park. She announced her withdrawal on Twitter yesterday.
"Sorry to announce that I had to withdraw from the Australian Open with a lower back stress fracture," she wrote. "Going back home, will miss my Aussie fans!"
Petkovic lost 5-7, 4-6 to Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland in a second-round match at the Sydney International on Tuesday. She needed an injury time-out during the match to receive treatment from a trainer.
In a statement released through the WTA, Petkovic said she'd been having back problems for three or four months.
