S. Williams cuts foot, to undergo surgery

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., U.S. tennis star Serena Williams said Saturday she will miss three upcoming events after cutting her foot on broken glass.

Williams said she will undergo surgery soon after sustaining the injury at a restaurant.

"I'm so upset I won't be able to play in the upcoming events because of this foot surgery," she said. "I can't wait to get back on the courts."

The world's top-ranked female player will miss events in Istanbul, Cincinnati and Montreal, but appears to be on course to return in time for the U.S. Open.

The injury comes after she won her 13th Grand Slam and fourth Wimbledon title this month.
