Emma Raducanu has pulled out of the WTA tournament in Monterrey next week after injury forced her to retire in the final set of a match in Guadalajara on Wednesday.
The British No 1 and 2021 US Open champion suffered a minor issue with her left leg during a gruelling first-round match against Daria Saville, which lasted over three and a half hours.
The 19-year-old is next scheduled to play in the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells from March 9.
Raducanu, if fit to play, will receive a first-round bye and not play her opening match until March 11 or 12.
The Bromley-based player's clash with Saville was her first outing since her defeat to Danka Kovinic in the second round of the Australian Open, a game in which Raducanu was hampered by a hand blister.
Her pre-season training in December was also disrupted by a bout of Covid-19.
