Briefly

"I had the worst start to a year which I could have imagined. You don't really appreciate the feeling of being healthy until you're in that position of being in control of it. 100%, it changed my outlook."
"Whether I would be fit enough to be on a match court this season was a huge conversation. I had no idea. There was a lot of being in the dark."
"The new British number four did not wish to divulge the nature of the issue but was happy to discuss how coming through it has provided a new perspective and appreciation in her life."
"Kartal returned at an ITF event in Loughborough - the third tier of tournaments below the WTA Tour and Challenger Tour - and claimed her ninth career title."
