Shang also withdraws from Miami, Halys takes advantage
Juncheng Shang had just withdrawn from the Indian Wells Masters 1000. A few hours later, his withdrawal from Miami was also confirmed.
"Jerry" had reached the semifinals of the ATP 250 in Hong Kong but got injured.
He had attempted to play at the Australian Open but had to retire before the end of the second set in the first round.
This withdrawal by Shang allows Halys to take his place and thus avoid the qualifying rounds.
