“I am very disappointed and sad that I have to resign. I was really looking forward to playing here again, but this year it will not work,” Krejčíková said in the twitter account of the tournament called the fifth grand slam.
The 26-year-old Czech tennis player last played in Doha, where she lost two weeks ago in the duel of champions Roland Garros with Latvia Jelena Ostapenková.
World No. 2 Barbora Krejcikova has withdrawn from the BNP Paribas Open due to an elbow injury.
As the next player in line to be seeded, Alize Cornet will move into Krejcikova’s spot in the draw.#IndianWells pic.twitter.com/tbvMN5GmVn

The Indian Wells tournament will miss the two best tennis players in the world. Australian Ashleigh Barty from Australia decided to skip not only the BNP Paribas Open, but also the subsequent event in Miami.
On the contrary, Karolína Plíšková will be in action. This year’s premiere awaits the world eight after the December arm fracture. Petra Kvitová, Markéta Vondroušová, Kateřina Siniaková and Tereza Martincová will also present Czech tennis players in the competition. Marie Bouzková has a chance to advance from the qualification.
