It has been an eventful year for two-time Grand Slam champion, Garbine Muguruza. The season began on a poor note for her, losing four consecutive first-round matches. Further, with the pressure mounting, the Spanish tennis beauty decided to take a break from tennis. The 29-year-old hoped to spend quality time with her family and friends and come back stronger to the court. She announced that she’ll be skipping the clay and grass-court season. While on a break, Muguruza went through a big life moment.

The former World Number 1 got engaged to Spanish model Arthur Borges. The latter is the same guy who asked Muguruza for a selfie during the 2021 US Open. The two later met and struck an instant bond. After a lengthy layoff and getting engaged, Muguruza hinted about a comeback to tennis.

The Spanish star is active on social media and regularly shares life updates with fans on platforms such as Instagram. On this occasion, she shared a story on her official Instagram handle about being at a practice session and watching Elina Svitolina in action.

Since then, she has missed many important tournaments, notably the French Open and Wimbledon. Owing to her lengthy break, the Spanish tennis beauty has slipped to Number 200 on the WTA Rankings Chart.
