Inspirational Petra Kvitova wins in Paris on return from stabbing ordeal
Just five months after she suffered career-threatening hand injuries when she was stabbed by an intruder at her home, the two-time Wimbledon champion defeated Julia Boserup 6-3 6-2 in the first round of the French Open on Sunday.
Kvitova’s parents and two brothers were among her support camp on Court Philippe Chatrier, with her team decked out in T-shirts bearing the slogan ‘Courage, Belief, Pojd (‘Come on’ in Czech)’.
