Krejcikova Looks To Rebuild Momentum
Barbora Krejcikova has suffered disappointing results in recent tournaments, failing to win a match in her last three events, most recently losing to Kamilla Rakhimova in the opening round at the US Open.
The Czech has struggled with fitness issues in recent years. She was also sidelined for three months this year after a slow start but gradually regained momentum in the following months. She now needs to rediscover that confidence to progress further.
She has played 14 events this year, with half of them ending in the opening round. Her notable results include winning the title in Athens, reaching the final in 's-Hertogenbosch and the semifinals in Prague.
