British number five Fran Jones has revealed her on-court collapse in Bogota came after a lack of acclimatisation meant her “heart worked a little too hard”.
The 24-year-old, fresh from winning her eighth career title in Brazil over the weekend, was two points from defeat in her round of 32 match with Julia Riera when she staggered while attempting to serve before falling to the floor.
She was taken out on a wheelchair and withdrew from the tournament.
