Australian tennis player Samantha Stosur said on Monday she will not play in the next month’s Australian Open after failing to recover from a lingering illness.

S. Stosur, ranked #1 in Australia and #46 in the world, struggled with illness for the last half of the year and said she was not fit enough to compete on home court.

“I am very disappointed I won’t be able to compete during the Australian summer,” the 23-year-old Stosur said.
