Shoulder injury forces Sharapova out of US Open

Third-seeded Russian Maria Sharapova has pulled out of next week’s US Open due to a shoulder injury, organizers said.

“Maria has informed us that she will be unable to compete at the US Open this year due to a right shoulder bursitis,” tournament director David Brewer said in a statement on Wednesday.

The four-time grand slam winner, who triumphed at Flushing Meadows in 2006, fired coach Jimmy Connors last week after just one match together.
