Marketa Vondrousova Undergoes Shoulder Surgery After Opting Out of US Open

News 18  

Former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova has undergone shoulder surgery, the 25-year-old said on Wednesday, days after she withdrew from this month’s U.S. Open due to injury. Vondrousova, who reached the U.S. Open quarter-finals last year, wrote on Instagram that she had been struggling with shoulder pain for the last few months, and there had been no option but to have surgery. “I’ve been struggling with shoulder pain for a few months now and there was no other option but to go for surgery,” Vondrousova wrote, along with a photo of her in a hospital bed. Vondrousova was eliminated 6-4, 6-2 by Jessica Bouzas Maneiro at Centre Court, becoming the first women’s champion since 1994 to lose her opening match the next year at Wimbledon.
