MONICA SELES has ruled out making a comeback before next January’s Australian Open as she is still recovering from a stress fracture in her left foot.
Attending the US Open for a sponsor event today, Seles said she is still unable to run and practise and that her foot needs another two-and-a-half months to heal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Playing the Australian Open is my goal but if that doesn’t work out, I’ll probably return in Miami (in-mid March),” said the 29-year-old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The nine-times grand slam champion, who has been out of action since losing in the first round of the French Open in May, added she is not planning to retire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I don’t want to go out this way,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But Seles is kicking herself for missing a chance to compete in this year’s US Open, which is without the injured Williams sisters for the first time since 1996.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Have you seen this draw?” said Seles. “There’s not going to be another one like this for at least another five years.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
