Tennis fans have something exciting to look forward to since Bianca Andreescu recently announced that she would make her comeback, most probably at the Australian Open 2021. The World No. 7 Andreescu last played a match in 2019 at the WTA Finals against Karolina Pliskova. She could not play the whole match due to a knee injury, which also forced her to skip the whole of the 2020 tennis season. Recently, she confirmed her presence in 2021 by sharing a message.
“I’m doing really well. The virus pushed me back, and some little personal things here and there, but right now I’m good, I’m training hard…I’m really looking forward to 2021,” announced a cheerful Andreescu.
Andreescu also spoke about how there were factors such as the coronavirus, apart from the knee injury, that became an obstacle for her. However, she believes that she is well enough and can return in 2021.

Andreescu shocked the entire world when she defeated the ‘Queen of Tennis’ Serena Williams in the finals of the US Open 2019. What was even more astonishing was that she achieved the feat at the age of 19. It was then that she caught worldwide attention. Unfortunately, an injury ruled her out of 2020 season.
