Only a few hours after tweeting this pic (um...it's a mango sign...she says), Vika was forced to retire at 0-2 in the third in her rubber against Austria, citing a sore throat. But Miguel Seabra (the commentator for Eurosport Portugal, apparently) tweeted that she was woozy, looked like she was going to faint on court, and speculated the weather change from Australia to Portugal might have something to do with it.
Is Vika the Nole of the WTA? The fiery kid with loads of talent who keeps falling ill or suffering from fitness issues at the most inopportune times? It's so curious. She seems fit and has a trainer traveling with her.
The injury helps team Britain though, as they're set to face Belarus tomorrow.
