Madison Keys has officially withdrawn from the upcoming China Open, adding her name to the list of players sidelined from the tournament. This decision follows a challenging performance at the US Open, where Keys faced a heartbreaking exit in the third round. In that match, she squandered a commanding 5-0 lead in the deciding set against Qinwen Zheng, who had previously mounted similar comebacks. The withdrawal comes as Keys continues to grapple with her form, and she will not be participating in the Asian swing of the tour. Her absence is a notable one, as she was expected to be a strong contender in the event. Meanwhile, Alexandra Eala has also pulled out, further impacting the tournament's player lineup.
