The world number 15 needed medical attention just minutes into her opening round match in Lexington, Kentucky, on Monday before she was able to continue playing.

In a Twitter post on Tuesday, 29-year-old Konta did not mention her heart scare but said she was disappointed by her result at the Top Seed Open.

“Not the result I wanted. However, so incredibly grateful to be competing again,” the third-seeded Konta tweeted. “Looking forward to my next opportunity.”

The Top Seed Open marks the first WTA Tour tournament in the U.S. since the COVID-19 outbreak put much of the professional sports calendar on hold.
