Loïs Boisson reports minor knee injury and targets a gradual comeback

French player Loïs Boisson confirmed that the knee injury she sustained during her first‑round match at Wimbledon was a hyperextension rather than a serious ligament tear. Medical checks showed no structural damage, and she was advised to rest for several days before beginning rehabilitation.

The setback caused her WTA ranking to fall sharply, which she described as a “sense of injustice” given the time away from competition. Boisson highlighted the mental difficulty of being sidelined, noting how the loss of match rhythm and tournament exposure can affect a young athlete’s confidence. She is focusing on a gradual return, using protected rankings and possible wild‑cards to re‑enter the tour when fully recovered.
