Ivanovic, who moved top of the rankings after winning the French Open last week, has pulled out of the Wimbledon warm-up event citing a right abductor problem.
The 20-year-old Serb also admits, however, that she would like a break after her exertions at Roland Garros.
Ivanovic said: "I have a problem with my abductor. I am also mentally exhausted after the French Open - I am not ready to compete so soon after winning my first grand slam.
"I have taken this decision with some regret, and I hope I can finally play in Eastbourne next year."
