(Reuters) - Former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova has undergone shoulder surgery, the 25-year-old said on Wednesday, days after she withdrew from this month's U.S. Open due to injury.

Vondrousova, who reached the U.S. Open quarter-finals last year, wrote on Instagram that she had been struggling with shoulder pain for the last few months, and there had been no option but to have surgery.
