Serena (And Venus) Out For Rest Of 2010

On Sunday, former World #1 Serena Wiliams withdrew from the in-door hard court tournament in Linz, Austria and announced that it is likely she will be out for the rest of the year.

"I am likely out for the year now," Williams said on her website. "I was really looking forward to beginning my comeback in Linz, followed by the year-end championships in Doha, [Qatar]. I feel completely heartbroken, and devastated, but knowing I will never be given more than I can handle I plan on coming back stronger and better."

Serena's sister Venus had previously announced that she would not be playing again in 2010.
