The returning Belinda Bencic and her daughter Bella are the stars this week in Bienne. Before the Billie Jean King Cup play-off against Serbia, the young mother impresses her teammates.

The fact that Belinda is now a mother is already special. We almost have to pinch ourselves a little“Like Céline Naef, everyone in Bienne is delighted that Bencic is back on the circuit, and especially within the Swiss team.”Our world champion team is complete again“, appreciates captain Heinz Günthardt, referring to the Swiss coronation of 2022 in Glasgow.

The return of Bencic, who became a mother in April, was planned for this BJKC jump-off. But to everyone’s surprise, the 27-year-old Saint-Galloise anticipated this by lining up over the last two weeks in tournaments on the ITF circuit, in Hamburg and Pétange. She made a promising comeback, with 3 victories in 4 matches.

So much so that Heinz Günthardt was not surprised, but above all impressed by her level of play. He added about Bencic’s new role as mother: “She looks extremely relaxed. She sure has help. (ed: his mother accompanies him this week), but I feel like she’s handling the situation perfectly.
