The World No. 12 reached the quarterfinal stage at Flushing Meadows last year, making this update a massive setback for her. Badosa is set to miss the rest of the North American swing, including the final major of the <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/tennis\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>season<\/a>.<\/p><p>Throughout her career, Badosa has fought a constant battle with injuries. She started the 2025 campaign with a semifinal finish at the Australian Open &ndash; losing to close friend and World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka. Since then, it has been an injury-filled year for the Spaniard. A former World No. 2 and Olympic quarterfinalist, Badosa is hoping to return at the earliest. She currently has a 17-11 record on tour, with no titles to show for it.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Coco Gauff v Paula Badosa Extended Highlights | Australian Open 2025 Quarterfinal\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B33m31UyJYM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Paula Badosa Set to Miss US Open 2025<\/h2><p>The 27-year-old has been out of action since her opening round loss at the Wimbledon Championships.
