Bianca Andreescu, the Canadian tennis professional, became the highest-ranked Canadian tennis player on WTA in 2019. She claimed the ranking of World no.4 after conquering the hard courts of the US Open. Further, she also became the only teenager after Maria Sharapova to win a Grand Slam title.

However, not much after invading the elite list, she suffered an injury to her knee which forced her out of the circuit. Thereafter, she appeared briefly in 2021 at the Australian Open. Following her subpar performance at the tournament, she took a break for mental healing. Now, after almost 2 years, Bianca is back on the courts. And here’s what she feels about regaining her old self at the Madrid Open.

Therefore, she even asked her team to switch if they felt the wait was long. But now that the tennis star is gracing the courts and has bounced back from a prolonged poor form, she looked as enthusiastic as when she debuted.
