Romania tennis player Simona Halep has confirmed she would not be participating in the upcoming Tokyo Olympics.
"Nothing brings me more pride than representing Romania, but sadly the recovery from my calf injury requires more time and I have made the decision to withdraw from the Olympic Games this summer. After the disappointment of missing the French Open and Wimbledon," said Halep in a tweet.
