From winning her first WTA title as an 18 year old in 2005 to coming back to the circuit after a considerable break, after becoming a mom & still showing the hunger & drive today, @MirzaSania truly isn’t just a super mom but also a national treasure. The sky is the limit.

She wins her comeback match. Always a super thing to do so. Well done @MirzaSania as you keep saying the fact that you have made a comeback is itself a massive statement.
