Brazil's Beatriz Haddad Maia has withdrawn from this week's Guadalajara Open as she injured her hands in a freak accident on Sunday after the shower screen at her hotel shattered.

The 27-year-old said she needed stitches on both hands.

"I'll need a few days now to heal the wounds so that I can be back for the last part of the year and keep fighting for my 2023 goals," she said in an Instagram post.

Beatriz Haddad Maia withdraws from Guadalajara due to injury.

The shower door in her hotel room shattered and she cut herself on the glass.

It sounds like it could've been a lot worse.

Thankful Bia is safe. Wishing her a quick recovery. 🇧🇷❤️‍🩹 pic.twitter.com/HAipWLogLJ
