Former world No 1 Garbine Muguruza has announced that she will miss the entire clay and grass seasons.
Muguruza, 29, hasn't played since suffering a Lyon first-round defeat to Linda Noskova on January 30th.
In January, Muguruza suffered four first-round exits and she owns a 0-4 record in 2023.
After Lyon, Muguruza pulled out of Abu Dhabi, Doha and Dubai.
Now, Muguruza reveals she has been spending time with her family and friends and getting herself in the right mental space.
“Spending time with family and friends and it's really been healthy and amazing so I am going to lengthen this period till summer. Therefore I'm going to miss the clay and gras season. Thanks for all the lovely messages and will be updating you guys," Muguruza said in a message posted on her Instagram Story.

After concluding her 2021 season by winning the WTA Finals, Muguruza was hoping to have a great 2022 season.
But the 2022 season was everything but a great season for Muguruza, who went 12-17 in 2022.
After a rough 2022 season, Muguruza also started the 2023 season in an unimpressive way.
Muguruza, a two-time Grand Slam champion, told The National in early February that she was humbled by her results.
“With tennis, one week it can go wrong, then next week it can go well, then everything changes again. I think experience helps me to stay calm in the not-so-good moments when I haven’t been playing as well or results haven’t followed. That’s where the experience comes in; to stay calm and keep working hard. And if you have to be a little more humble, that’s good too. It’s really a rollercoaster, the athlete’s career," Muguruza told The National before taking a break from tennis.
With Muguruza out through the grass season, we could see the former world No 1 back in action as soon as during the North American hard court swing.
