2016 Hong Kong Open Tennis - British No 1 Johanna Konta pulls out of Hong Kong Open second round with abdominal strain




British No 1 Jo Konta pulled out of her second-round match at the Hong Kong Open because of an abdominal strain, which could jeopardise her hopes of making the season-ending WTA Finals.
