Top seed Ashleigh Barty said it was heartbreaking to retire injured midway through the second set of her French Open second-round match against Poland’s Magda Linette on Thursday.

The Australian, who won the title on her last visit to Roland Garros in 2019, left the court for medical treatment after losing the first set 6-1. She had struggled with a hip problem during her first-round win on Tuesday and called it quits at 2-2 in the second set on Thursday. Barty also retired injured from the Italian Open last month.
