Maria was the defending champion in Taijin (the only title she one after her comeback). The world no.24 released the following statement

“I was looking forward to coming back to Tianjin to defend my title but unfortunately I need to give myself time to recover from injury. I am disappointed that I won’t be able to play in front of all of the fans in Tianjin again and I hope to be able to play there in the future.

I wish everyone at the tournament a successful five-year anniversary.”
