Iga Swiatek has announced that she will not participate in the upcoming Korea Open due to fatigue. The world number one has had an intense season, and her team has advised that she take time off to recover physically and mentally.

The decision comes after Swiatek’s deep runs in several tournaments, including Grand Slams. She has expressed the need to prioritize her health as she looks forward to the next phase of the season. Swiatek’s absence will undoubtedly be felt at the event.

Meanwhile, Jessica Pegula has also withdrawn from the Korea Open due to an injury. The American tennis star, who has been in solid form this year, is focusing on her recovery in hopes of returning to the tour as soon as possible.

With both Swiatek and Pegula out of the tournament, the Korea Open will see a shake-up in the competition. Fans will be eager to see which players step up to fill the void left by these two top contenders.
