Williams pulls out hours before draw
 
 Associated Press

PARIS -- A nagging left knee injury forced Serena Williams to withdraw from the French Open just hours before Friday's draw.

Williams, the U.S. Open champion, was seeded eighth but had been out for more than a month with the injury.

Her withdrawal means that Austria's Barbara Schett will be seeded for the tournament, which starts Monday.
