Garbine Muguruza, the Spanish tennis professional, is gearing up for the upcoming grass-based Grand Slam. The former World no.1 gave a subpar performance during the clay-court season because of an injury. However, after suffering a minor bump in her career, she now looks more energetic than ever.
The Spaniard has started preparing for the upcoming outdoor tournament. Further, Muguruza recently shared a clip of herself getting ready for a practice session on the grass.

Muguruza took to Instagram to brighten her fan’s day by disclosing the things she takes care of before starting a long day of practice. The World No.10 shared a video and wrote, “Get ready with me. Tennis time. Behind the scenes.”
Further in the clip, the right-handed tennis ace is seen spraying and wrapping her feet with Pointer sisters’ Jump playing in the background. To which some fans responded by writing, “Wonderful way to prevent injuries,” and “I like your preparation!”
While the 28-year-old’s equipments swayed others as they wrote, “That ankle brace though!,” “What’s the spray?” And “What is the name of that tape ??”
Muguruza’s season so far
The 2016 French Open champion failed miserably in this year’s tournament. Though in her defense, she was struggling with a shoulder injury, which she incurred towards the end of the hard-court season. However, now that Muguruza has had an entire season embedded with early exits, her fans are hoping to see her have a long run in the upcoming tournaments in the grass-court season.
Further, she has an impressive record on grass, as she defeated the seven times Grand Slam champion Venus Williams to claim the trophy at 2017 Wimbledon championship. In addition, the Spaniard played six matches in the grass courts last year, out of which she came out victorious in four.
Though since 2017, Muguruza has only played 11 matches on grass. Thus, there are high chances if her shoulder injury resurfaces and causes problems in the upcoming major, her experience on the surface wouldn’t keep her afloat.
