Badosa withdraws from Miami Open due to back problems.
The nightmare of Paula Badosa with her back is back. After several months of relative tranquility, which allowed her to return to her best tennis and enter the top 10 after her semifinals at the Australian Open, her chronic back injury is playing tricks on her again. The Spaniard has been forced to withdraw before the round of 16 of the Miami Open due to these discomforts, as already happened to her in Indian Wells and at the WTA event in Mérida. It remains to be seen how the injury evolves and whether she has to stop abruptly again or manages to recover to be in the best physical condition for the upcoming clay court season that is just around the corner.
