Belinda Bencic has withdrawn from the WTA event in Tokyo, news that broke on October 26 as the tournament got underway. Only days earlier she had been listed among the leading names in the draw, making her exit a real loss for the field.
Bencic pulled out of Tokyo, with her withdrawal reported alongside Chwalinska's on October 26.
The pre-tournament draw preview from October 24 had placed her among the event's top names, next to Rybakina and Shnaider.
The stories don't give a reason for her withdrawal, so fans will be waiting to hear more.
