Tennis star Kvitova recovering from arm injury

Prostejov (Czech Republic), March 22 (IANS) Czech tennis star Petra Kvitová has revealed that she has been working hard on her recovery from the left arm injury she suffered after being attacked by a knife-wielding assailant in her home here on December 20.

The two-time Wimbledon champion received stab wounds in her left arm and the 26-year-old had to undergo surgery on December 21.

In a Facebook post on Tuesday, she gave her fans an update on her future. But she didn’t give any date for her return to action.

“Hi guys! I wanted to say hello since time is flying by — three whole months already since the attack — and let you know that I’m working really hard on my recovery. I still can’t tell you when I will be back, but I can tell you that tennis is a huge motivation for me and I realised while I’ve been away how much I like challenges,” she posted on Facebook.

“My perspective on life has changed a lot and I am doing everything to give myself a second chance to be back on the court. I thank you for staying with me through this and I hope to see you all soon, love Petra.”
