Greek tennis star Maria Sakkari’s 2024 season is officially over due to a shoulder injury with her target being to return in the new year for the tournaments in Australia.
Sakkari made the announcement on her Instagram story, with the text stating:
“For the last few weeks, my main focus has been on recovering from my shoulder injury. Unfortunately, due to this, I will have to end my season earlier than planned. I will be back stronger and pain-free,” the story reads.
“Thank you all for your support. It’s been a challenging year, but it has taught me a lot as well. See you soon in Australia.”
The world number 22 had a challenging year by her standards, winning 20 matches from her total 35.
The highlight of her 2024 season was reaching the final of the Indian Wells Masters wherein she lost to world number one Iga Swiatek.
