Paula Badosa arrives with many doubts at the Mutua Madrid Open after the Spanish tennis player had to withdraw due to injury in her match at the Stuttgart Tournament against Aryna Sabalenka, something that unfortunately has become a habit for Badosa after the injury in a vertebra that she suffered during the WTA 1,000 in Rome last year.
About this ordeal with injuries, Badosa herself has spoken on the WTA Insider Podcast, the official podcast of the WTA, and in it Badosa confesses that the doctors told her during the Indian Wells tournament that it was going to be very difficult for her to continue playing. . “After some check-ups in March, the doctors told me that it would be difficult for me to continue my career.” Finally, Badosa has been able to compete in recent tournaments thanks to several cortisone injections to mitigate the pain.
A Badosa who, despite this, does not give up on her dream of continuing to play professional tennis for the love she has for this sport. “I think what makes me fight every day is the love I have for this sport. I always had the goal of being one of the best in the world and winning tournaments and facing the great players. And that’s why I am here”.
In her talk with the WTA Insider Podcast, Badosa also hints that she believes her career could last three or four more years. “For me, being able to play three or four more years would be incredible.”
In the interview, Badosa also reviews the problems he experienced when he had to face depression and stated that he will try to return to the top despite everything. “I have had numerous experiences and also mental problems. And now I have an injury that I never expected and to be injured for so long. I was at the top, and now I’m at the bottom trying to get back. Is very intense”.
