Estonia’s Kaia Kanepi REUTERS/Kelly Defina Can Donna Vekic finally break through at Wimbledon, or is she destined to fall short again? Croatian tennis player Donna Vekic thinks, “tennis isn’t everything.” She fought bravely and recovered from a knee injury to reach another Grand Slam quarterfinal after last year. Despite believing “there’s also like a time limit”,  Vekic is just a few steps away from making history if she manages to grab a Grand Slam title. Having struggled with her form for two years, she finally delved into why she thinks she won’t “be playing ten more years.” Vekic defeated Paula Badosa by 6-2, 1-6, 6-4 to reach the quarterfinals at Court 1 today. Two days ago, she engaged in a conversation with the WTA Insider podcast and opened up about her tennis career and retirement. Mentioning that “tennis is a small part” of her life, this Croatian WTA star explained how she realized that “here’s things in life a lot bigger than tennis and tennis isn’t everything and everything.”  After that, Vekic discussed into her retirement, noting, “there’s also like a time limit”. Speaking about retirement, she said, “yeah I am still pushing everyday but I know I’m not gonna be playing ten more years. I only have couple of more years left in me and I just want to really after my career not have in regrets about everything I have done, everything  that I can for my career to be the best I can.” ADVERTISEMENT Article continues below this ad Vekic suffered a right knee injury and had an operation in 2021. She further encountered another knee and foot injury, including torn fascia, in 2022. Last year, this Croatian WTA star reached the Australian Open’s quarterfinals after a two-year gap. Earlier, Vekic also thought to “quit tennis” but then she won Courmayeur. Again, she showcased an amazing performance in San Diego. Although her “fitness was improving, but it wasn’t coming together on the match court.” As a player, who knew her capability of doing better, it was mentally too tough for her “to be on this average level.” What do you think is the biggest factor in Donna Vekic’s recent career resurgence? New coaching team Improved fitness Mental toughness Experience and maturity Vekic had major issues with her form and fitness following her knee surgery in 2021, pushing her almost to the verge of retirement. However, Vekic fought back hard and won the Monterrey Open in 2023. She also reached the San Diego Open’s quarterfinals this year.
