(Reuters) - Last year's French Open runner-up Karolina Muchova will return to action after 10 months out with a right wrist injury at next week's Eastbourne International, the 27-year-old said as she builds match fitness for Wimbledon and the Olympic Games.

The Czech world number 34 enjoyed one of her best seasons in 2023, finishing runner-up to Iga Swiatek at Roland Garros before making the U.S. Open semi-finals in September, where she picked up the injury.
