Wimbledon 2023: Elena Rybakina into quarter-finals after Beatriz Haddad Maia retires, Mirra Andreeva out
Defending champion Elena Rybakina is into the quarter-finals of Wimbledon after her opponent Beatriz Haddad Maia retired injured just five games into their encounter on Centre Court. The Brazilian had come into the encounter with hopes of causing an upset, but at 2-1 down — on the verge of being broken — she appeared to suffer an issue with her back mid-rally, and was subsequently barely able to move. Ad Despite some treatment and carrying on until Rybakina had moved 4-1 up, Haddad Maia tearfully decided she could no longer continue.
