Anisimova explains her abrupt retirement at Indian Wells

The Hindu  

Amanda Anisimova, who abruptly retired from her second-round match against Canadian Leylah Fernandez at Indian Wells on Saturday, said on Sunday said she had been feeling too ill to continue. The American cruised through the first set 6-2 and was 5-4 40-0 up when teenager Fernandez stormed back, saving four match points to force a tiebreak that she dominated 7-6. Before the anticipated third set could begin, Anisimova told the chair umpire she was not feeling well and rushed off the court to the stunned disappointment of the 5,000 fans packed into Stadium Two. At January's Australian Open, Anisimova beat Naomi Osaka and Belinda Bencic before falling to eventual champion Ash Barty in the fourth round.
