The player announced on social media that she has been diagnosed with Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) and Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism. Navarro, who reached the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open last month before losing to Jessica Pegula, intends to return to competition in time for the Australian Open in January.
