Tennis world has been shocked by the news coming from Prostejov, the Czech Republic today that Petra Kvitova was severely injured by a burglar who entered her apartment pretending to be a maintenance worker. The intruder put a knife to her throat and a bathroom struggle left Kvitova badly injured. To make things worse, it is her playing hand that sustained severe lacerations.
Do you remember that a similar scenario happened to Anna Chakvetadze in 2007 in Moscow? The Russian was tied up by the robbers who targeted her wealth, while Kvitova was just an accidental victim as the robber didn't even know he was knocking on the door of a tennis star worth millions of dollars.
