Defending Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova gave a fitness update ahead of her title defence against Eastbourne Open runners-up Alexandra Eala. Barbora, who was forced to withdraw from the Eastbourne Open this week due to injury ahead of the quarterfinal, will be kickstarting her Grand Slam defence in the UK against Eala on Tuesday. Speaking ahead of the match in the pre-match presser, Krejcikova said, “I had to have a couple of days off where I did not really play any tennis, but I did some off-court stuff. I have been feeling every day a little bit better, so I am really happy with that.”
Heading into the Wimbledon after playing some tournaments in May and June following a thigh issue that stopped her from playing between November to May, she said that things have not been difficult despite spending so much time away from the game.
