During the off day, Badosa roamed around the city and visited the hospital of her birth. While doing that, she got emotional as well. "25 years ago! 25 year 26 almost… my hospital," she said during the visit.

Badosa is continuing her recovery from a back injury that she sustained during the second round against Marta Kostyuk at Wimbledon 2023.
