‘Love I received from the people helped me forget everything’: Simona Halep opens up about support from fans
Romanian tennis star Simona Halep returned to tennis action last month when she was handed a wildcard entry into the 2024 Miami Open. Although she got knocked out in the second round, Halep played some decent tennis despite being away from the game for over a year.
However, it was not an easy comeback for the 32-year-old, as she was returning after serving a doping ban. Halep’s image was tainted, and although she got her ban reduced from four years to nine months, fans were not ready to let it slip under the rug easily. This chatter around her comeback made Halep nervous.
