Serena Williams withdraws from Australian Open
SERENA WILLIAMS will not defend her Australian Open title as she struggles to recover from a foot injury which has kept her out since July.
“As I continue to rehabilitate my foot after the second surgery last month, it is with the utmost regret that I am withdrawing from the Hopman Cup and the 2011 Australian Open,” said Williams.

She hurt her foot by standing on broken glass at a restaurant and added: “Pushing myself back into my training too early only caused me further injury.”
