World number one Iga Swiatek says she is waiting for "more info" on the thigh injury which forced her to retire from her Italian Open quarter-final against Elena Rybakina.

Swiatek, 21, needed treatment before retiring at 2-6 7-6 (7-3) 2-2 on Wednesday.

The reigning French Open champion hopes to be fit for this year's tournament, which begins on 28 May.

"The diagnostic is in progress," said Swiatek.external-link

"More info in the following days."

The three-time major winner was in tears as she left the court for a medical timeout during the second-set tie-break against Kazakhstan's Rybakina, and returned with strapping on her right thigh.

Swiatek won the previous two Italian Opens and was on a 14-match winning streak in Rome.

Wimbledon champion and world number six Rybakina has now registered three wins over Swiatek this season.

In the semi-finals she will face Latvian 20th seed Jelena Ostapenko, who beat Spain's former world number two Paula Badosa 6-2 4-6 6-3, winning the first set in just 19 minutes.
