Azarenka retired from her Toyko quarterfinals against Camila Giorgi, while trailing 5-3 last month.
The 55th-ranked Belarusian posted a 17-12 record on the season with five of those victories—over CC Bellis, Madison Keys, Anastasija Sevastova, Agnieszka Radwanska and Karolina Pliskova—coming during her run to the Miami Open semifinals in March.
Kateryna Kozlova replaced Azarenka in the Luxembourg field.
Venus Williams has also withdrawn from the tournament due to a knee injury.
