Knee, shoulder pain keeps Halep from joining Aussie Open qualifying

Quick Summary:

MELBOURNE, Australia — Two-time Grand Slam champion Simona Halep pulled out of Australian Open qualifying and a tuneup tournament in Auckland, New Zealand, on Thursday because of pain in her knee and shoulder, the latest interruption of her comeback from a drug suspension.

The 33-year-old Romanian said she is planning to next enter the Transylvania Open in her home country, where play begins Feb.3.

She has been ranked as high as No.1 but is currently 877th and hasn’t played at any Grand Slam tournament since 2022 after missing all tournaments for 1 1/2 years because of a doping case.
