She keeps withdrawing events
I have not seen playing her a lot recently

Who has fresh news, do we know if she will play Wimbledon ?

 

[luke75]

So bad, no news from everybody
Missed and neglected also by tennis forum

I believe maybe danish fans could have answered

the only updates we have got on her have come from some of the danish fans here as her father had given updates to the local press there.

it obviously wasn't good. She got a very nasty viral infection in Miami and was hospitalized for some time and obviously has been slow to recover. Such a promising start to the year really went down the toilet. Not sure if she'll play Wimbly she did a last minute W/D from RG so who knows what is going on with her. Would be nice to get an update.

Danish TV just got an SMS mess. from her dad, every time he will just say She had withdrawn from X tournament, but he won't wanna tell about the future... So NO news yet about WIM.

Well she didn’t withdraw from Wimbledon before the qualies draw was made so hopefully that’s a good sign…(?)

she withdrew from the French only a few days before it started.. after the draw had been made and was replaced with a LL

Oh, I wasn’t on TF much that week so I missed that detail.

So history could well repeat then, but hopefully not. Unless it’s Little Sara or Swagger Colleen who get in as LL 😍

Iga broke her spirit.

Do you go out of your way to make people dislike you, or does it come without effort.

This is what tennis does bad.

The WTA should be full of updates of Tauson, Brady, Collins, and Kenin. Instead, crickets.

Kostyuk ruined Tauson's career.

I will be surprised if she makes it to Wimbledon with no grass matches and indeed no matches, I think she will be one of a number of pull outs that happen during this week. If she does play, then bread will probably feature.

There was an article in the Danish press yesterday where her coach said that Wimbledon was a tough tournament to play with no grass court preparation. He didn’t sound hopeful, but he didn’t rule out her playing either. The focus seemed to be on being fully prepared for the hard court season though.

There is an other reason for Clara to withdrew from Tournaments,
she`s sad because her Grandmother is dead. Its her dads mom.

 

[dreforall]

according to this post of a podcast she did recently(?) she will travel to Wimbledon today. Clara also shared it on her story

thanks dreforall... that makes me a happy man. I don't expect her to stay long if she does play. But man oh man is that good news. She really had a breakout year lined up before she got sick.

 

[Jorn]

Its undecided yet if Clara will play Wimbledon, that IG news was wrong… if you klik that Link you can see it has been deleted.

 

[MichaelB]

that it has... well that sucks. Even JPeg removed the speculation and announced today she was playing. Suspect we'll get another very late withdraw from Clara. Even as a fan of hers... I won't think that is too cool. Either show up.. or drop out pre draw on Friday. Don't wait to the last minute and drop out again.

dude, waiting until the last minute to drop out is exactly the point.

Ever since they changed the rule on LLs, no player in MD has any incentive to pull out of a Grand Slam before the draw is made. If you're on the MD list and you show up on site, you're entitled to 35K or whatever it is.

So even if you have no intention of playing, you want to keep the ambiguity going until the draw comes out. That's pretty clearly what happened with Tauson at the FO, and it may well happen again now.

Although if she's well enough to make some kind of effort, perhaps it would make sense to go out on court for the 1R and get the full money instead of only half...
