Bartoli reveals she's gained a couple of pounds since entering clinic

With health concerns surrounding her weight, Marion Bartoli says she has gained a couple of pounds since entering a clinic following Wimbledon.

"Already 1kg gain with the amazing team," she wrote.

Bartoli appears to be staying at an Italian hotel known for its health spa.

Attention surrounding Bartoli's weight increased when she didn’t play the Ladies’ Invitation event at Wimbledon. British reports said the former champion was withdrawn by officials because of medical concerns.

During the tournament, she told France's Paris Match and a British television station that her increasingly thin appearance was due to a virus she had picked up during a period of heavy travel following the Australian Open. However, she did not mention medical reasons during an interview with The Times of London a few months ago, instead attributing it to a selective, all-natural eating regimen.

Bartoli has become involved in commentating and fashion design since retiring.
