This will keep me from playing for a few weeks," Badosa reveals new injury ahead of U.S. tour start
Physical issues are piling up for Paula Badosa, who has endured a tough few months after a strong start to the year that saw her reach the semifinals of the Australian Open.
Troubled by a back injury during the clay-court season, the world No. 10 announced on Monday that she is now dealing with a psoas injury. At Wimbledon, she was knocked out in the first round by Katie Boulter before withdrawing from an exhibition match in Spain last weekend.
She shared an update on her Instagram account:
"Hello everyone. I’ve been offline for a while, but I wanted to give you an update on my situation. Lately, I’ve been going through some tough times… Unfortunately, I’ve been struggling with a psoas injury that flared up before Wimbledon.
This will keep me from playing for a few weeks. These are difficult times for me, but I remain hopeful that things will improve and that the light at the end of the tunnel will start to shine. Thank you for your incredible support.
