After trying to tough it out, Paula Badosa has finally given in. The 27-year-old Spaniard, a former world No. 2, has officially ended her 2025 season due to a thigh injury sustained during the third round of the WTA 1000 in Beijing (against Muchova).

Her message posted on social media quickly moved her fans. With rare sincerity, the player shared a testimony full of pain, but above all, of admirable resilience:

"No matter the obstacles that stand in my way, I will continue to fight and I will always find the path to come back. See you in 2026."

This is not the first time Badosa has been forced to step away from the courts due to injuries. Already this season, the Spaniard has retired or withdrawn four times, notably because of a recurring back issue.

At the Beijing tournament, however, she had shown promising form, hinting at a return to her best. But in the third round, she was forced to retire, with tears in her eyes.

"My body can't keep up for now. But my heart has never been more determined... See you in 2026."

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
