JAKARTA - Former world number one Maria Sharapova will open her 2020 season in Brisbane after being granted a wild card facility by organizers, the five-time champion of the major tournament announced Monday.
The 32-year-old Russian has not played since her first-round defeat by career rival Serena Williams at the US Open last August.
"Hi Brisbane, I miss you very much and I am very excited to start my season at your tournament and in your city," said Sharapova in a video message on her Instagram account.
"I can't wait to see you all in a few days."
Sharapova has dropped to 133th in the world rankings after a 2019 season which was plagued by a shoulder injury that limited her to only 15 competitive matches.
He won the Brisbane title in 2015. The tournament in the Australian city this year starts on Monday.
