Bianca Andreescu’s Australian Open status is now uncertain following her last-minute withdrawal from the ASB Classic, where she was expected to fine-tune her game ahead of the season’s first Grand Slam. Tournament director Nicolas Lamperin cited personal reasons for the former US Open champion’s decision to skip the Auckland event.
With Andreescu out, the ASB Classic still boasts intrigue as Madison Keys, initially unavailable due to her wedding to Bjorn Fratangelo, ultimately agreed to join the competition as the top seed. The tournament provides a key stage for players like Keys, especially with top WTA names such as Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff choosing alternate paths to prepare for Melbourne.
Andreescu’s absence adds uncertainty to her readiness for the Australian Open, leaving fans and analysts speculating about her plans for the 2025 season.
