'23 Wimbledon champ Vondrousova gets surgery

2023 Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova has undergone shoulder surgery, the 25-year-old said Wednesday, days after she withdrew from this month's US Open due to injury.

Vondrousova, who reached the US Open quarterfinals last year, wrote on Instagram that she had been struggling with shoulder pain for the last few months, and there had been no option but to have surgery.

The Czech, who won the silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, pulled out of the Paris Olympics due to a hand injury after her Wimbledon title defense ended in a shocking first-round exit in July.

"Everything went well and I'll start rehab soon," she wrote. "See you back on the court happy and healthy."
