    Former world number one, Caroline Wozniacki, has withdrawn from the forthcoming French Open due to her ongoing struggles with an ankle injury.
Wozniacki pulled out of recent clay court tournaments in Madrid and Rome as she battles to overcome a troublesome right ankle, which put her participation at Roland Garros in doubt.

And it was confirmed by the WTA that the Dane, who has never gone beyond the quarter-final stage in the French capital, will miss the year's second grand slam.

The 25-year-old was tumbled down the rankings in recent months. Having been as high as fourth last August, she is now placed 34th.
Wozniacki has not featured on the tour since losing to Elina Svitolina in the last 32 of the Miami Open in March.

Her participation at Roland Garros was already in doubt after she withdrew from clay-court tournaments in Madrid and Rome because of the injury she suffered during practice.

The draw for the French Open is on Friday. Play begins on Sunday.
