Continuing recovery from a foot injury, Jasmine Paolini has stepped out of Washington, DC and Toronto.

The 2024 Wimbledon finalist reached the quarterfinals at SW19 earlier this month.

Paolini lost to Marta Kostyuk at Wimbledon and has not played since “so I can give my foot extra time to rest,” the 30-year-old Italian posted on Instagram Stories.

The 15th-ranked Paolini has posted a 15-13 record this season.

A year ago, Paolini reached the US Open third round losing to former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova.
