Tennis sensation Sania Mirza figures in the main draw of next month's French Open in Paris while Indian cricket physio John Gloster had a look at the ankle injury of the star player who opted out of the ongoing Fed Cup at New Delhi.
"Sania got the entry into the main draw by virtue of her ranking (73) and she will be playing it, but fitness is top on her priority list", Sania's father Imran Mirza said in Hyderabad on Friday.
"She will decide on the future course of action including rest, play, therapy [if prescribed] after the final report on her injury comes in", he said.
When asked about the ankle injury, Mirza said Sania is making good progress and that Gloster too had a look at the injury and her medical reports.
"Gloster said he will be giving his advise only after the reassessment tests are done after the prescribed period of rest of 12 days at the Apollo hospital", Mirza said, adding that Sania would then start her preparations for the French Open commencing on May 23.
