BEIJING (AP) — World No. 1 and defending champion Iga Swiatek has withdrawn from next week’s China Open in Beijing, citing personal reasons. Swiatek and the WTA Tour announced her withdrawal on Friday.  Swiatek has won four of the previous eight WTA 1000-level events played this year but last competed in New York at the U.S. Open, where she lost to Jessica Pegula in the quarterfinals two weeks ago. Swiatek also withdrew from this week’s Korea Open in Seoul, citing fatigue.
