Serena Williams just made a big announcement about playing in its year’s U.S. Open. The 39-year-old tennis superstar went to Instagram to announce<\/a> that she is withdrawing from the tournament due to a hamstring injury. She didn’t announce when she’ll be back on the court.<\/p>\n “After careful consideration and following the advice of my doctors and medical team, I have decided to withdraw from the US Open to allow my body to heal completely from a torn hamstring,” Williams wrote. “New York is one of the most exciting cities in the world and one of my favorite places to play – I’ll miss seeing the fans but will be cheering on from afar. “Thank you for your continued love and support. I’ll see you soon.”<\/p>\n
