Clearly, the WTA 500 in Berlin seems to be doing damage. After the withdrawals of Elena Rybakina and Marketa Vondrousova, it is the turn of Aryna Sabalenka to withdraw from the tournament.
Opposed to Anna Kalinskaya in the quarter-final, the world number three felt pain in her shoulder, forcing her to throw in the towel at 5–1 in favor of her opponent in the first set.
