Sofya Zhuk appeared to be on her way to becoming the next Russian player to dominate tennis when she won the junior women’s title at Wimbledon in 2015 without dropping a set.
However, of all the Grand Slam tournaments he participated in, Zhuk failed to make it past the first round of either the French Open or the US Open. He went 123-66 in his career before leaving the sport at just 20 years old in 2020 due to a chronic back injury.

She explained to WTA Tennis in 2020 that her back was a problem even before she started to take off on the junior circuit.
«Even before Junior Wimbledon, my back was so bad that no doctor even wanted to help me,» he told the outlet. «I was considered a lost cause. There was only one doctor who even tried to treat me, and even his prognosis was that I would last a few years. When it comes to neurological connections, the spine is the main thing in your body. If your spine is out of balance, your hips, shoulders, shoulder blades, knees: everything is thrown out of balance because the position is moving back and forth.
Zhuk added: «My body doesn’t absorb protein well and the discs in my spine are all over the place. I’ve had MRI scans which show my spine is as firm as a 50 or 60 year old.» «
