After falling during a match against Argentina’s Julia Riera, British tennis star Fran Jones was forced to leave a tournament in Colombia.
In the third set of the Colsanitas Cup in Bogota, the 24-year-old lost his footing and was unable to continue playing.
In a wheelchair, she needed assistance from the court.
The official X account for the Colsanitas Cup stated, “Due to a physical issue, Francesca Jones has withdrawn from her match against Julia Riera at 6-2 5-7 5-3 in favor of the Argentinian.”
“We wish the British tennis player a speedy recovery.”
During the match, she had appeared to be struggling with her breathing and lay on the floor before being lifted into a wheelchair by medics and her opponent, then taken off court.
