Former World No. 4 ranked Canadian tennis star, Bianca Andreescu enjoyed her off-season in Jamaica ‘cooling out’.

Andreescu recently spent quality time with children at the Round Hill Hotel on Jamaica’s North Coast, playing tennis and reading her children’s book Bibi’s Got Game with them. Andreescu accompanied Canadian Open Toronto tournament director, Karl Hale to Jamaica for charity events, according to tennis journalist, Ben Rothenberg on social media.

She played some tennis on the local courts, held a youth tennis clinic and donated her book at the event.

“These are the things I live for.”

Andreescu reported that her time in Jamaica was spent enjoying and playing with the children, which was dare to her heart.

“These are the things I live for,” Andreescu wrote on Instagram.

The 22-year-old ended her 2022 season at the Billie Jean King Cup Finals, where she represented Canada in group-stage ties against Italy and Switzerland. She won her singles match against Italy’s Elisabetta Cocciaretto, before losing a thriller against Switzerland’s Viktorija Golubic.

Her last WTA points tournament of the season was the Guadalajara Open, where she bowed out in the Round of 16 with a loss to eventual champion Jessica Pegula. 

Andreescu has sights set on returning to the Top in 2023.

“Give me six months and I believe that I can do really good,” she declared.

After a six-month layoff, Andreescu returned to the tour in April this year. During her time off, she fell outside the top 100 in the WTA rankings but found her way back inside the top 50 at No. 45 at the end of the 2022 season.
