Happy in love, unhappy at the game. If she will have lived a rich year 2023 on a sentimental level with her very cyber-exposed romance with Stefanos Tsitsipas, Paula Badosa will on the other hand have lived through hell on a sporting level. Victim of a stress fracture in the spine last May at the end of a quarter-final in Rome, the Spaniard, who had attempted an unsuccessful return to Wimbledon, preferred to say stop and already put a end of her season, as she announced this Friday evening on her networks.
Already deprived of the Australian Open at the start of the year due to an adductor injury, the former world number 2 had returned rather well in the spring, during the clay court season. But she was cut down mid-flight by this back injury which is taking longer than expected to be treated properly.
The native of New York had however attempted a return to Wimbledon, where she had even managed to win a match. Even she then had to give up in the second round, again due to a sore back. This will remain his only Grand Slam of the year, and his final tournament of the season.
