Simona Halep could be a doubt for the upcoming US Open after being forced to withdraw from the Cincinnati Open with a thigh injury.

Halep had been due to play Veronika Kudermetova on Wednesday, but will now hand the latter a walkover to the last 16, where either Paula Badosa or Ajla Tomljanovic lie in wait.

Ad Halep, working with Serena Williams' ex-coach Patrick Mouratoglou since April, has rediscovered some of her best form this summer, reaching the semi-finals of Wimbledon — losing to eventual winner Elena Rybakina — and then winning the Canadian Open last week.
