Former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova withdrew from the Australian Open on Sunday after the Czech player said she was dealing with a shoulder injury.

Czech Vondrousova, who became the first unseeded woman to lift the title last year, earned a far less welcome accolade after a 6-4 6-2 defeat by Spain's Jessica Bouzas Maneiro.

Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova said Tuesday she was determined "not to push in anywhere" in her bid to avoid the media spotlight after her historic triumph.
