Two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova is making a comeback to professional tennis, seven months after giving birth to her son. The 34-year-old Czech star announced her return in a video message, expressing excitement about competing again after a 15-month break.
Back on the Court
Kvitova confirmed that she will restart her career at the Austin tournament in late February, followed by the Miami Open in March. “I really miss tennis and competing,” she shared, signaling her eagerness to return to the sport she dominated for years.
Her absence began on New Year’s Day 2024, when she announced her pregnancy. She welcomed her son, Petr, on July 7, 2024. Now, she is ready to step back onto the court, aiming to add more titles to her already impressive record.

Kvitova, a former world number two, first won Wimbledon in 2011 and claimed her second title in 2014. Over the years, she built a remarkable career, winning 31 WTA singles titles and establishing herself as one of the top players in women’s tennis.
She married her longtime coach, Jiri Vanek, in July 2023. Their partnership, both personal and professional, has played a key role in her success.
