Yet another WTA Top 10 early exit

The season is just a few days old and we've already seen almost all of the WTA's Top 10 players withdraw or retire from matches at their Australian Open tune-ups. World No. 3 Garbine Muguruza kept the streak going on Wednesday, retiring with a left foot injury down 7–6, 1–0 to Varvara Lepchenko in Brisbane. It was later confirmed that the injury is related to ongoing issues with plantar fasciitis in her foot.

Looking ahead to the upcoming tennis season as 2016 kicks off
