Tennis player Paula Badosa (no. 74 WTA) has retired in tears due to physical problems in her back after losing the first set 6-4 against the Swiss Lulu Sun (no. 181 WTA) in her debut, this Monday, at the Dubai tournament (United Arab Emirates).
The Spaniard, who has already accumulated 32 withdrawals throughout her career, had already abandoned this season in the second round of Hua Hin (Thailand) against the Russian Diana Schnaider (no. 73 WTA) due to a back injury, although the tennis player stressed that it was not a relapse of the previous one.
Sun, who entered the tournament through an invitation that allowed her to be directly in the main draw, thus signs her first victory against the former world number two in April 2022 and moves on to the next round where she will face the Latvian Jelena Ostapenko , number nine in the world ranking.
