BRUSSELS (AP) — Kim Clijsters may miss next month’s French Open after injuring her right ankle during a wedding party.

A statement posted on the Belgian star’s website said the injury would keep her out for at least four to six weeks.

The statement said that since the French Open starts in six weeks, “Kim’s presence in Paris is very uncertain.”

The U.S. and Australian Open winner was already dealing with shoulder and wrist problems when she injured her ankle at the wedding of her cousin, Tim.
