'Maybe my last chance': Andreescu attacks latest comeback with sense of urgency

Bianca Andreescu, the 2019 U.S. Open champion from Mississauga, Ontario, competed at the 2025 Italian Open and lost in the fourth round on May 12.
After battling multiple injuries and undergoing emergency appendix surgery in February, Andreescu took nearly six months off starting in December to focus on her health and recovery.
During a phone interview from Rome, Andreescu emphasized her renewed commitment, sobriety since December 14, and recent victories over two top-20 players including Elena Rybakina, the 11th seed.
Andreescu lost 7-5, 6-1 to Qinwen Zheng, an Olympic champion and eighth seed, in a 93-minute match where Zheng saved set point and secured multiple breaks of serve.
Andreescu expressed this comeback as possibly her last chance, showing confidence in returning to her 2019 form and continuing her role as a mental health advocate and Tennis Canada ambassador in 2025.
