After her incredible win at the 2019 US Open, Andreescu sustained a terrible injury. She wasn’t able to recover fast enough and hence had to miss the entire 2020 tennis season. She was definitely upset about this, which is why she will be training hard for a successful return next year.
Along with Bianca, Bouchard will also be training for the upcoming season. After years of bad form, Genie finally played incredibly well to improve her ranking from 262 in 2019 to 140. She will now want to continue this great run into the 2021 season.
