Former Wimbledon champion, Petra Kvitova, hasn’t had a very successful 2021 season, to say the least. She had to withdraw from the French Open just after winning the first round due to an injury and she was knocked out from Wimbledon 2021 in the very first round.

The Czech tennis star was defeated in straight sets by Sloane Stephens in the Wimbledon opener. However, Kvitova was able to salvage pride at the Bad Homburg Open where her journey ended in the semis. Needless to say, Kvitova would be itching to make a grand comeback.
