Yeah she seems to struggle with the mental aspect of the game and combined with her knee, back, and other issues it's understandable. She's taken mental breaks, mentioned she's come close to quitting, etc. Just seems like maybe he's not up to the grind of a career tennis player. I think the worst thing to happen to a young pro is to miss a lot of time due to injuries as it stunts development and maybe it's sidetracked her career path. I still think she can be a good pro if she can stay healthy but I wonder if she loves the game enough. The difference about professional team sports and individual is that in team sports players can treat their career like a job but with individual sports you really need to love what you are doing to have a long career.
