Andreescu went down while moving across the
baseline in the second set of her last-16 meeting with Ekaterina
Alexandrova, grabbing her ankle and screaming in pain before
retiring from the match.
"Woke up with a brace on my foot... anyone know what happened?"
Andreescu tweeted.
"On a serious note tho... that was the worst pain I've ever
felt... praying for nothing serious. Still waiting on official
results. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and kind words,
doesn't go unnoticed.
"So much love, y'all are the best."
The 22-year-old Canadian has struggled with injuries since
defeating Serena Williams to win the 2019 U.S. Open.
In Miami, the tournament's 2021 finalist beat Emma Raducanu,
seventh seed Maria Sakkari, and Sofia Kenin to reach the fourth
round, and was up a set and a break against 18th seed
Alexandrova when she suffered the injury.
