Story Highlights:

The Spanish star retired from her China Open match due to a hip injury and confirmed she won’t return to action in 2025.

Badosa lifted fans’ spirits by dancing with her sister and vibing to Tems’ Grammy-winning song “Love Me JeJe” amid her rehabilitation phase.

Paula Badosa drew a premature end to her 2025 season after continuous injuries, consisting of a back issue that led to her withdrawals from the Madrid Open and the US Open. The announcement came after she played final game in the third round against Karolina Muchova. She retired from that game because of a left hip injury.

In the wake of her early-exit, she has reunited with her sister, Jana Badosa. The two grooved to the music and showed off their dance moves.

"Back with sissy means TikTok time," Paula wrote on her Instagram story.

 

 

On Tuesday morning, Paula Badosa posted another video featuring her dancing by the pool to the hit song by Tems, "Love me Je Je."

"Temsbaby is such a vibe," she wrote.

 

 

Tems' "Love Me JeJe," produced by GuiltyBeatz and Spax, won the Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.

Paula Badosa targets recovery and rehabilitation after early end of season

After she retired from the third round in the China Open, Paula Bados announced on Instagram that she won't make a return to play in 2025. However, she aims to return strong in 2026.

"There are times when I ask myself how I manage to keep going through the toughest moments. And the truth is, it's in those exact moments that I discover the deepest strength inside me," Badosa said via ESPN. "Every setback hurts, but it also reminds me how badly I want to fight, how much I want to come back stronger.

 

 

"No matter how many obstacles come my way, I promise you this: I will keep fighting, I will keep pushing, and I will keep finding my way back... See you in 2026."

 

 

Paula Badosa did not play in the 2025 US Open. At Wimbledon, she faced defeat in the first round. At Roland Garros, her run ended in the third round against Daria Kasatkina. She was going through her best form at the Australian Open, where she reached the semifinal before being outlasted by Aryna Sabalenka.

Badosa reached the World No.2 ranking in 2022. But in the last year and a half, she has been facing injuries, resulting in retirements and early round exits.
