Inspiring wins, pet peeves and seagulls: the social round-up

Petra Kvitova’s feel-good return from a horror injury has reached a new high:

This victory is for my team and fans to say thank you for being with me in the tough times. We didn’t know if I would play again let alone win a trophy so this is an extra special moment. And it is for all of us to share. I also wanted to say how much I enjoyed sharing the court with Ash and appreciated her kind words in the ceremony. Birmingham will forever have a special place in my heart. Love to everyone from a very tired Petra ?????? #teampetra #aegonclassic

Ashleigh Barty missed out on the Birmingham singles title – but didn’t leave empty-handed, winning the doubles alongside Casey Dellacqua:

My top pet peeve is the typical post loss tweet: "Not the result I was looking for today, but will come back stronger"= instant unfollow https://t.co/ss5NQT1YfP
