A torn ligament and retinaculum meant surgery was needed but Burrage’s recovery went well and she was on track to be ready for the French Open, only to suffer an ankle injury in a training session with good friend Katie Boulter in May. “It’s been a long time but I actually feel in a good spot,” she told the PA news agency. “I’ve done a lot of hard work, wrist feels good, ankle feels good.
