  • With the US Open next, the injury puts a cloud over defending champion Osaka.

    "Last year I won the US Open and this year I'm trying to play the US Open. "I don't even really think about winning the tournament. I just want to have the chance to play. If there is one percent chance of me not playing it, that's what's concerning me."
