Former Australian Open champion Sofia Kenin celebrates 24th birthday in style in Miami

Sofia Kenin, the 2020 Australian Open champion, has been in and out of action this year owing to several injuries. She appeared for the last time this season at the WTA 125K Midland tournament at the start of November.

Kenin has been making the most out of her off-season as she celebrated her 24th birthday in exquisite fashion on November 14. On Monday, the American shared on social media snaps of the great time she had with her friends and family in Miami on the occasion of her birthday.

"Had a great time celebrating my birthday last week! Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. Cheers to 24!" she wrote in her Instagram post.

Kenin suffered five consecutive first-round defeats from January to March after reaching the quarterfinals of the Adelaide International 1. She then pulled out of tournaments from April to July due to a serious foot injury.

Since recovering from the injury, the former French Open runner-up has made the quarterfinals in Cleveland and Midland and the semifinals at an ITF $80,000 event. The performances have pushed her up to her current ranking of No. 240 after having slipped outside the top 300 mid-year.
