Statement from US Open Tournament Director David Brewer on Eugenie Bouchard

 

Eugenie Bouchard is withdrawing from both the women’s doubles and mixed doubles competition at the 2015 US Open. Following the competition yesterday evening, Ms. Bouchard slipped and fell in the locker room and sustained a head injury. The severity of the injury was and continues to be assessed by the on-site medical personnel at the US Open. The medical staff has recommended that Ms. Bouchard withdraw from today’s competitions, and Ms. Bouchard is following that advice. No determination about competing in the singles competition has been made at this time. Ms. Bouchard will continue with medical evaluation and treatment for the remainder of the day. An update on her condition will be provided later today.
