Wimbledon-serenaWorld number one, Serena Williams, has pulled out of all remaining WTA tour events in 2015, to address health concerns.

Serena, who had won three of the four Grand Slam titles in 2015, said that she was ending her season prematurely, citing a desire to give her body time to recover from a succession of injuries.

Reports had earlier speculated that Williams had decided to end her season early, as she struggled to come to terms with the disappointing end to her bid for the Calendar Grand Slam, which fell apart when she lost to Roberta Vinci in the semi-finals of the US Open.

Williams won 55 of 58 matches in 2015 and regardless of other results between now and December, she will end the year as World number 1 for the fifth time in a row.
