Petra Kvitova takes time off due to leg injury

4

Petra Kvitova will take a few days of rest following her Wimbledon title run.  The 21-year-old Czech was playing Wimbledon on painkillers and now she’s decided to skip next week’s NURNBERGER Gastein Ladies in Austria to fully recover.

Kvitova was supposed to be top seed at the $220,000 event and Julia Goerges will now take that place.

The video I included in this article instead of a photo is Kvitova’s photo shoot with her Wimbledon trophy and men’s singles champion Novak Djokovic. Kvitova attracted a lot of positive attention with her blue gown at the Wimbledon Champions Ball.
