Has returned to the top 15 after three separate injury absences of 3+ months.
Stat Man's Verdict
Stat Man's take: when the body cooperates, Badosa's first-strike forehand belongs in any top-five conversation. The resilience arc is the story — every injury comeback has ended with her PULSE climbing back above 80. You cannot teach that stubbornness.
