Between all injury woes battling Sophia Kenin will see her ranking improve dramatically

America’s tennis star Sofia Kenin has revealed her fitness update ahead of the Guadalajara Open semifinal.

The 24-year-old booked her place in the last-four of the competition after beating Canada’s Leylah Annie Fernandez in the quarterfinal with a score of 6,4, 6-7, 6-1.

During the match, Kenin had some discomfort which might concerned her fans but she has provided a positive update.

“My quad is just a little bit tight,” she said. “Nothing serious. I played a lot of matches so it's obviously normal that it's a bit tight. I just wanted to put some tape just to protect it.”

Kenin is now set to face fellow American Caroline Dolehide in the semifinal of the tournament on Friday.

The Moscow-born will be hoping to continue her winning run in the competition, especially after having a below-par 2023.

More importantly, a victory in the competition will also see her rankings improve which will pave way for an easier qualification in the upcoming tournaments.

Kenin, who struggled with fitness concerns in the recent past, played in all four Grand Slams this year but failed to play in the fourth round or beyond in any of the mega-events.

Her best outing came in Wimbledon where she was knocked out from the third round after losing to Ukraine’s Elina Svitolina in straight sets with a score of 7-6, 6-2.
