The press in the United States of America reacted to the news that Simona Halep (33 years old) will return to the tennis court at the Transylvania Open in Romania at the beginning of February.
Simona received a wildcard and announced her presence at the tournament in Cluj-Napoca last year.
Americans view Simona Halep's participation in the tournament in Romania favorably.
"Welcome news for Halep, who went through a tough period. (…) Initially suspended for four years, a decision overturned after an appeal to the CAS, Simona Halep returned to the circuit in 2024, but her comeback was not auspicious. She suffered an injury and was forced to stop playing almost the entire year.
She received a wildcard for the Australian Open, but could not honor it due to medical issues," writes the website tennisuptodate.com.
Since her return to tennis, Simona has played only 5 official matches. She won only one, against Arina Rodionova in Hong Kong in October.
