Victoria Azarenka will miss the French Open because of a left foot injury.

“Unfortunately I will not be able to compete in Roland Garros this year. Working hard on my recovery & getting back on the court,” the former top-ranked player said Sunday on Twitter.

Azarenka last played on tour at Indian Wells, California on March 7.

The French Open begins May 25 in Paris.

Azarenka, from Belarus, is a two-time Australian Open champion and a two-time U.S. Open runner-up.
