Wimbledon hopeful Simona Halep wants surgery to reduce the size of her breasts.
Halep, 17, is seen as one of the tennis stars of the future after winning a host of junior titles and a place in the final of the junior French Open last year.
But the 5-foot-5-inch Romanian tennis star said she thinks her 34DD bust is holding her back.
"This fall I'll have a breast reduction operation,” Halep said. “The breasts make me uncomfortable when I play."
"It's the weight that troubles me — my ability to react quickly," she added.
