After the Paralympic Games, I underwent major surgery. And then… everything came to a halt. No tennis, no routine, no coach, no tournaments. But what I got in return turned out to be valuable, too. I had to slow down, to recover, to reflect. To enjoy life beyond the tennis court and the high-performance bubble, even take a proper holiday. And then, that familiar feeling returned… I wanted to get back on court. The best part? I was finally cleared by the doctors to start again. But with that desire came new uncertainties. How do I approach this? Who can guide me on court? How will people view my comeback? It became a journey, one that’s still unfolding.
