Madison Keys to Miss Australian Open After Surgery
Madison Keys says she will miss the Australian Open after having wrist surgery.
The 21-year-old American, who is ranked No. 8 in the world, said Friday in a statement on Twitter that she had arthroscopic surgery on her left wrist three days after the season-ending WTA Finals in October.
The right-hander described the procedure as minor, saying it didn’t involve any tendon issues and went very well.

Keys, who has reunited with coach Lindsay Davenport after splitting a year ago, says she is back to work training in Orlando, Florida, but won’t be ready to play the first grand slam of the season, which begins January 16.
She writes: ”I don’t want to rush back and need to take my time to perform my best on the court.”
