Serena Williams has withdrawn from next week's Qatar Open because of illness, the WTA said on Thursday.Williams has not played competitively for nearly eight months after undergoing a knee operation but had hoped to make her comeback at the $600,000 event in Doha. "I am really disappointed that I won't be playing Doha...I have been battling the 'flu for several days and am not quite 100 percent well yet," the American said in a statement. "The good news is that the knee is feeling great and I feel I am back in championship form." "I'm anxious to resume playing and looking forward to getting back on court and seeing my fans." The 22-year-old could make her return at the Nasdaq-100 Open in Miami in March.
