On the 6th, Beijing time, novice mother Kvitova once again missed the lead in the first set at the WTA 1,000-point 2025 Indian Wells Tennis Tournament, and was counterattacked by the French-Russian opponent Gracheva 6:4, 3:6, 4:6, and missed the opening.
Newbie mom Kvitova
Kvitova, a two-time Wimbledon women's singles champion who returned to action after giving birth to her first child in July last year, also went through a three-set battle in Austin last week, and now suffered a setback in the Southern California desert to make a comeback for the 34-year-old Czech left-handed woman to swallow two straight defeats, although Kvitova has earned a wild card in Miami at the same level and is still looking to win the Sunshine Doubles.
Gracheva
Gracheva made a thrilling exit and did not forget to pay tribute to Kvitova, who has been out of action for a year and a half, and wished her the best of luck as a mother and a professional footballer, "It's a very difficult task, it's very inspiring for the sport, the players and the women, it's amazing." I admire you, you are the best. According to the Women's Singles draw, Gracheva beat 17-year-old Russian No. 9 seed Andreeva in the second round.
