“I’ve dreamed of starting the Olympics since I was little, but because of all the complications caused by the pandemic, I feel it’s the right decision,” the winner of last year’s US Open wrote on the instagram.

Prior to Andreescu, her compatriot and tenth world player Denis Shapovalov also apologized for participating in the Tokyo Games due to fears of coronavirus. Stars such as Rafael Nadal, Dominic Thiem, Stan Wawrinka, Serena Williams and Simona Halep will also be missing for personal or health reasons.
