Jennifer Brady, the former world No. 13 and 2021 Australian Open runner-up, has announced she will be undergoing knee surgery, leading to another extended break from tennis.
Brady's career has been plagued by injuries, forcing her to take a two-year hiatus from tennis between 2021 and 2023.
During her recovery, Brady will return to her alma mater, UCLA, to serve as an assistant coach for the women's tennis team.
Brady made her comeback in August 2023, showing potential during the US hardcourt swing and at the end of the year.
