Paula Badosa spoke about the recurrence of injury.
In the first round of Roland Garros, the Spaniard beat the 26th seeded Katie Bolter - 4:, 7:5, 6:4. Now she will play with Yulia Putintseva.
After Rome I felt pain in my back again and had to return to Madrid. I have spoken to many people, including players, who were forced to retire due to this injury. Uncertainty and doubts appeared. I wondered how I would continue while dependent on [cortisone] shots.
Today I have to put up with the pain and stop training. This started a couple of days ago. In some parts of the game I felt the pain a little stronger and became scared.
I never know what state I`ll be in in the morning, and some days I wake up in pain. Today I was in pain throughout the entire match. I`m proud of how I fought, but now I feel completely lost because of this injury. I do not know what to do. But every victory is an opportunity to try to feel better the next day.
At the end of the day, I`m struggling with [the injury], with my opponent and with myself because I make a lot of mistakes. There is so much going on during the game that it becomes difficult for me. Sometimes I even find it difficult to control my emotions.
In the first set I felt like a mountain and realized that I wouldn`t last long. On the other hand, when the match predictions by soccer rankings ends, I am proud that I was able to overcome these thoughts, and I say to myself: Come on, come on, tomorrow there will be another chance.
Let`s see how I feel tomorrow. But I struggle with many things.
Badosa also commented on the decision to play mixed doubles with Stefanos Tsitsipas.
I need to improve a lot - serving, volleying, everything else. . . It seemed to me that it was a good idea to play doubles or mixed doubles. [Tsitsipas] will do a great job and will help me a lot
In the end, mixed doubles is an hour and a half, which will help me with my training.
