Paula Badosa is not having a good time in recent months. Wimbledon was her last tournament in 2023 before she began a string of injuries that left her unable to play a single tournament all year.
It seemed that 2024 started differently showing good form on her return to the Australian Open, but since then he has suffered a couple more injuries and this Monday when she had to leave Dubai in the first round due to another physical problem and she burst into tears on the same court.
So, after a couple of surely very hard days, Paula wanted to publish a text on her social networks to thank the support received from her fans and to send a very clear message: she will not give up.
"Want to thank everyone that has sent supportive messages this past days on this difficult moments for me. It’s being a long process, but I won’t give up. Tennis is my life and passion, and I’ll do anything to comeback as soon as possible and enjoy this sport again," she wrote.
We will see when he returns. At the moment there is no date announced for her return after her withdrawal in Dubai. Logically, there is no hurry, the important thing is that she can return recovered to one hundred percent. We will see if she can still make it to an important fast court tournament like Indian Wells or Miami or if she tries for the clay court tour.
