aka 2022 National Bank Open not presented by Shelby Rogers. She withdrew.

Both the Williams sisters are there. Rafa (abs) and Novak (vaccine mandate) aren't playing.

Forecast for today not the best for either of the two cities.

she does explain later that she was first alternate, so had Bianca withdrawn 2 hrs earlier she would have got into qualies.
But unclear if she's commenting about Bianca specifically or just late withdrawals in general.

only she will know. If she knew she wasn't gonna play it's proper etiquette to withdraw before the draw. But if you're unsure and want to wait til last minute and see how your body is feeling, I see no problem with this as you need to take care of number 1.
