Former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova, aged 25, recently announced that she has undergone shoulder surgery. This decision came shortly after she withdrew from the upcoming US Open due to an injury. Vondrousova, who made it to the quarterfinals of the US Open last year, took to Instagram to share that she had been experiencing shoulder pain for several months, leading to the necessity of surgery.
The Czech tennis player, who clinched the silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, had to skip the Paris Olympics due to a hand injury. Her Wimbledon title defense earlier this year ended in a surprising first-round defeat, further adding to her challenges.
