Bencic, who peaked at No.4 in the world rankings, started her 2025 season at the United Cup, winning the opening stage but succumbing to Italy in the second group tie. She made it to the fourth round of the Australian Open, losing to Coco Gauff in three sets. The Swiss ended her WTA 1000 runs prematurely in Miami and Madrid before taking the court for the Italian Open.

She injured her arm in the opening set and retired from the Rome tournament. Her injury also hampered her progression at the French Open, forcing her to sit out. Now rehabilitating, Belinda Bencic has been spending downtime engaging in core workouts with her 1-year-old daughter and husband, Martin Hromkovic.

With her daughter, the Swiss embraced significant changes in her life, while tennis no longer remained her priority.

"I didn’t expect to be back so early. I have huge respect to all the moms. What women go through, the body change is amazing. We couldn’t be happier at the moment. We’re parents now. Our lives have changed, but definitely for the better. We’re super excited with Bella."

She added:

"In the matches I played already think I was much calmer. I didn’t feel so much pressure I put on myself. Before tennis was all my life. I put so much pressure. Now it’s just not the most important thing. My priority is my family. I can leave a bad day at the office, on the tennis court behind. That’s something that’s changed.”

Bencic boasts nine career singles titles and an Olympic silver in the doubles under her belt.
