I think it will be similar to their previous match, where Karo lost the first set before winning the last two easily.

 

a case of meet the new bot, same as the old bot for Tess

 

Karolina P. is back

 

Why she disappeared? i thought she retired. She didn't had a child, so what is the reason?

 

She had ruptured ankle tendons and needed two surgeries (first wasn’t successful). There was also a wrist injury in 2023 that I don’t think she fully recovered from last year, definitely had some impact on her game too.

 

Maybe Kaja will finally win grand slam in the last moment like Woz did.

 

Stranger things have happened but I think she missed her window from 2017-2021.

 

Wow I really thought she retired quietly and would tell the world when she’s ready.

 

i guess thats why she didn't had a baby yet. because she planned on the comeback.

Let’s go Tessah!

 

Oh wow, she’s back

 

I’m curious to see how this will go. She was top 50-ish before injury (but she was also very streaky) so we’ll see.

There should be no expectations other than she can hopefully put up a competitive showing at this match.

 

I think that as long as she’s fully fit she should easily get back to the top 50. She been injured for most of the last 3 years, and when she was playing she was barely moving and her wrist was screwed.

 

If she can hit her serve like she was before the injury, she will be back in the Top 50. She's too good not to be, I mean she is a former #1 and two time slam finalist along with semis at the other two.

 

Without a serve what kinda player will bot be?

 

Karo is back!


also Entered Wuhan…

 

I thought she had retired. If she still harbours any dream of winning a slam, the windows are closed. Not eveyone is a Woz.

 

But she is Karolina too.

 

Had Jana been awake, Woz has never won..

 

She can aim to retire at Wimbledon next year. I don't see how she can be at the top echelon of the game anymore.
