Left wrist injury. There will be 7 advancing to maindraw from quallies (6QF & 1LL). Get better soon!!!

 

[wtn_amanda]

So that means Silvia will be in? coz shes number 1 seed?

 

[AjdeNate!]

Not necessarily. They will play quallies as normal. Then the highest seed that loses in the last round of qualifying will move in.

 

[Astro Jetson]

Get well soon Nathalie! Hope she will be at USopen!

 

[Tennisfan-Mtl]

Nathalie

Hope you're ok for the US Open

 

[Linnie]

Nathalie

Get well soon - I want to see you at the Open!

 

[GABRIEL]

Nat couldn't she withdraw a bit earlier so that Silvia could go directly into the main draw.....

 

[gmak]

exactly

no need for silvia to play qualies

 

[Julian]

Nathalie

I hope you feel better!!

 

[Tweety]

Nathalie
Get well soon!

@ GABRIEL & gmak, it would have been better when Nathalie not had to pull out!

Sacre bleu, childhood neighbors and tennis rivals Nat and Amelie could support a physiotherapy center! (The curse of the 24 y.o. French girls with mothers named Francoise). Of course the Placid Parisian had to withdraw (after the start) from Canberra the week B4 the AO (thigh injury that time). And this further highlights the effect of Peppermint Patty not Playing Pilot Pen because her "Protector" is Personna non-grata here, belonging in another kind of Pen!

 

[Daniel]

Get well soon Dechy

 

[switz]

Nat couldn't she withdraw a bit earlier so that Silvia could go directly into the main draw.....

schnyder would have been the next in if dechy pulled out before the main draw

Whaddya kidding? Peppermint Patty could have entered this depleted field with a WC anytime from Monday through Thurs. and I think you know why she didn't!

 

[AjdeNate!]

She was trying to get Hoffman a visa with a different name, so he can 'affect' her tennis properly in New York.

What

Poor Nathalie... such a great start to the year and now this

 

[tenn_ace]

Don't worry, Dechy's fans... if she is injured, it's not really serious. Natalie was playing a practice match against Stephanie Foretz and she looked fine.

 

[Venus Williams]

Nadia Petrova withdrew earlier today as well.
