Illness ends Serena’s Indian Wells bid, No. 2 Halep advances vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Serena Williams’s first tournament since the Australian Open came to an abrupt end on Sunday as the ailing 23-time Grand Slam champion retired from her third-round WTA match against Garbine Muguruza at Indian Wells.
“Before the match, I did not feel great, and then it just got worse with every second; extreme dizziness and extreme fatigue,” Williams said in comments released via tournament organizers. It was a tough draw for Williams, who defeated former world number one Victoria Azarenka in her second-round opener.“We’ve played many times and it’s always super-tough, super-exciting,” Muguruza said.
“It was really difficult against her because I never played against her — it was a bit difficult to get a rhythm,” Halep said.
