The most awkward presser: Paula Badosa loses at Wimbledon, journalist congratulates her on a win

Paula Badosa‘s post-match press conference at Wimbledon quickly got awkward as an interviewer mistakenly congratulated her on a win, even though she retired from her second-round match against Marta Kostyuk. “For your information, I just lost,” the WTA player had to clarify the situation to the reporter several times.

Playing her first tournament since Rome due to back injury, the world No.35 Badosa continues to suffer from back problems. Her Friday’s singles match against Kostyuk at Wimbledon wasn’t completed as the Spaniard was forced to retire while trailing 6-2 1-0 due to the ongoing stress fracture.
