Ajla Tomljanovic’s 2017 comeback season isn’t over yet. The Croatian is playing the WTA $125K Series in Honolulu after a few weeks on the ITF Pro Circuit. She reached the final two weeks ago at an $80,000 in Waco, Texas, and her ranking has risen back up to No. 136 following a lengthy shoulder injury in 2016.

The 24-year-old may be boosted in Hawaii this week by a special hitting partner, world No. 21 Nick Kyrgios. The pair seem to be back together after a breakup following Kyrgios’ antics at Wimbledon involving a night out clubbing with two teenage girls. Kyrgios and Tomljanovic were dating for around two years until that point, after which Tomljanovic deactivated her social media accounts.
