Former Grand-slam champion Venus Williams has withdrawn from the 2011 US Open Tennis Championship, and the reason is because she was diagnosed with a new auto-immune disease known as Sjogren's syndrome, even after winning her 1st match. In her statement today, she said-


          
''I have been recently diagnosed with Sjogren's Syndrome, an autoimmune disease which is an ongoing medical condition that affects my energy level and causes fatigue and joint pain.''
''I enjoyed playing my first match here and wish I could continue but right now I am unable to. 'I am thankful I finally have a diagnosis and am now focused on getting better and returning to the court soon.''
"'I'm really disappointed to have to withdraw from this year's US Open.''

Sad news, but we hope she gets better and defeats the disease.

And where the hell did she contaminated that embarrassing syndrome?, all the same, I wish her quick recovery. She's an African tennis legend doing America proud.
