The couple recently ended a hiatus in their relationship not long after announcing that they had separated for good. While Badosa’s Wimbledon is underway, Tsitsipas exited the tournament in the second round after defeat to Emil Ruusuvuori.

Despite the many setbacks, the 26-year-old did not lose hope, managed to recover, and persistently competed in tournaments despite not getting the desired results. At Wimbledon, she convincingly defeated Karolina Muchova and Brenda Fruhvirtova in the first two rounds before she dug deep to get past Daria Kasatkina.

I've always been very tough mentally and a fighter, so I was going to do it anyway. So for me, I'm very proud that I've been through all of this. And now that I'm, again, in the fourth round and playing good level again, because sometimes also when I came back at the beginning of the year and struggling so much, my level wasn't there. I feel myself so far away. Now seeing myself back at it, it means a lot.
