Halep's future 'in the fog': what was learned about the next tournament and her chances of being at the Olympic Games

Simona Halep (32 years old) has returned to the country and is preparing at Stejarii Country Club with her new coach, Carlos Martinez (48 years old).

It was expected that the two would then go to Rouen for the WTA 250 tournament which will take place between April 15-21. It's just that, in an answer provided to gsp.ro, the organizers stated that, for now, they have not granted the Romanian a wild-card. So, it remains to be seen where Halep will debut in the clay season.

And another dilemma exists regarding Simona's participation in the Olympic Games in Paris (July 26 – August 11). In this regard, the president of the Tennis Federation, George Cosac, is optimistic. “I think that he has a 90% chance of receiving a wildcard for the Olympic Games. Why? Because she was world number 1, a Grand Slam winner right in Paris, and a great injustice was done to her (no – she stayed on the touchline for 18 months, instead of 9)“, said Cosac for Antena Sport.
