Sofia Kenin withdrew from the 2022 Guadalajara Open, that she initially used her protected ranking for, and therefore ended her season early.

In 2022, the young American enjoyed her best season. She lifted her maiden Grand Slam title and skyrocketed to the fourth place of the WTA Rankings. Last year, Sofia Kenin finished as world no. 12 but her season was troubled by injuries what showed on her performance this year.

The American won only 4 out of 17 matches she played and currently, she's ranked 311th. At the 2022 Guadalajara Open, she had her last chance to earn enough points and extent her streak of Top 100 finishes, but after her withdrawal, it's sure that Kenin will finish this year outside of Top 300.

Earlier this year, she spoke about how difficult the recovery was for her, when she said: "I saw everyone playing the tournaments I was supposed to be playing in, and of course it made me sad and I felt pretty down. But I knew that I had to put my health first because that is most important, even outside of tennis."
