Maria Sakkari has announced that the US Open will mark her last tournament of the 2024 season, citing ongoing issues with a shoulder injury.

The Greek tennis star had to retire from her match during her debut at the prestigious New York event.

In a statement shared on her social media, Sakkari declared her commitment to recovery: “Over the past few weeks, my main goal has been to recover from my shoulder injury. Unfortunately, due to that, I have to end my season earlier than planned. I will be back soon and pain-free.”

Sakkari then expressed her gratitude for her supporters, writing, “Thank you for your support. It has been a year full of challenges, but it has also taught me a lot. See you soon in Australia.”
