Badosa Berlin Wimbledon

Paula Badosa has been enduring a nightmare with injuries for the past two years. Plagued by recurring back issues, the Spanish world No. 10 took time to recover after Miami, missing nearly two months of competition before returning for the end of the clay season.

Despite her efforts, she was ultimately eliminated in the third round of the Paris Grand Slam by Daria Kasatkina (6-1, 7-5), before beginning her preparation for Wimbledon.

Competing in Berlin this week for her first grass-court tournament of the season, Badosa managed to secure back-to-back straight-set wins against Eva Lys and Emma Navarro.

Unfortunately for her, physical setbacks seem to have resurfaced in recent hours. During her quarterfinal against Wang Xinyu, the Spaniard threw in the towel after just three points played in the second set, minutes after losing the first set decisively (6-1 ret.).

While no official reason has yet been given by the player herself to justify her withdrawal, she did post a very brief message on social media: "I'm tired of all this," reads her X (formerly Twitter) account.

For now, it’s unclear whether the former world No. 2 will be able to compete at Wimbledon, but her fans—already uneasy about her health struggles in recent months—are surely growing concerned.
