Kwon Soon-woo, who resumed court training in the middle of last month after her shoulder pain disappeared, plans to improve her condition in Florida before traveling to New York to compete in the US Open, which begins on Aug. 28 (local time). It would be her first return to the court in six months since the Exxon Mobile Open in Qatar in February.
If Kwon reaches the main draw of the tournament, it will be her fifth consecutive appearance since 2019.
Kwon’s best results at the US Open were in 2020 and last year, when she reached the second round. This year, she will be looking to reach the third round for the first time ever.
