Amanda Anisimova has ended her 2026 season because of a recurring wrist injury and hopes to return in 2027, according to Reuters’ report of her 28 September announcement.
The scope changed in six days
The WTA’s 22 September update concerned her withdrawal from Singapore and identified a left-wrist injury. Read together, the two announcements show the change: this is now more than one tournament missed.
That distinction matters when following a sequence of injury updates. After withdrawing from a single event, a player may still resume the season; the latest decision closes that possibility for this year. A return in 2027 is an intention, rather than a guaranteed date or a confirmed tournament entry.
