Garbiñe Muguruza made a public appearance with her fiancé, Arthur Borges, at the San Sebastian Festival in Spain.
The 2-time Grand Slam champion had been keeping a low profile and avoiding public appearances since she made the decision to take a break from the WTA Tour due to a rough patch in her tennis career.
In 2023, she participated in only four tournaments, suffering four first-round defeats, with the latest being on January 30th against Linda Noskova at the Lyon Open. Following her victory in the 2021 WTA Finals, Muguruza faced a challenging 2022 season with unfavorable results, causing her to fall out of the top 50 in the rankings.
Currently, the Spanish tennis star appears content with the break she took from the sport. While in Spain, she enjoyed the premiere of the biographical film 'Dance First,' based on the work of Irish playwright Samuel Beckett.
Muguruza was invited to the San Sebastian Festival in Spain, where she appeared alongside her fiancé, Arthur Borges, and shared photos of the event on her social media platforms. The former world No. 1 looked elegant in a white one-shoulder Dior dress, complemented by a micro bag adorned with multicolored stones from Lady Dior:
"San Sebastián Film Festival at @dior 🤍," Muguruza wrote on Instagram.
While Muguruza mentioned at the beginning of the year that she initially planned to skip only the clay and grass seasons, her break will extend into 2024. She recently mentioned her return during the Australian Open, a tournament where she reached the final in 2020 but was defeated by Sofia Kenin.
"I’m enjoying this sabbatical, I think it’s good to stop but it’s not a definitive goodbye. I want to prepare myself to come back, when I’m ready I’ll go back to the courts. US Open, Australian Open, Olympic medal," Muguruza responded when asked about her comeback
