After Melbourne, Jovanovski moved 7 places down on rankings. But, what was worse than that, it's that Bojana got injured in Melbourne, and stated that the only choice was pause. She tried to play in Paris but lost easily to Andrea Petkovic.[102] So, she knew that she must recover and withdrew from Doha, Dubai and also Fed Cup.
Consequences of injuries continued for the results. Jovanovski lost convincigly at next four events in Acapulco, Indian Wells, Miami, and also first clay tournament of season in Marrakech, winning a total of just two matches.
In Oeiras Jovanovski beat Monica Puig and in second round against Elena Vesnina Bojana served for match and had match point for first quarterfinal since Hobart. But she lost that match 7–6 in third set. In first round of Madrid she declassed Karin Knapp, but lost in second round to countrywoman Ana Ivanovic in good performance.[103] Including that loss in Madrid, Jovanovski lost then 6 times in a row, including French Open. Only time she won set was first set against Sloane Stephens in Rome. In Roland Garros, Jovanovski lost to Camila Giorgi.
Jovanovski came in Wimbledon with 7–15 win-loss season record. But she scored her first win since Madrid after win over Johanna Larsson. After that she came up with her best performance of the year, stunning 8th seed Victoria Azarenka 6–3, 3–6, 7–5 to reach third round.[104] It was her 4th top 10 win. She however missed a big chance to reach next round, falling to Czech qualifier and world No. 176 Tereza Smitkova. Jovanovski had a match point in second set, then served two times for a match in final set (incl. another match point), but couldn't cross the finishing line. She also played doubles, partnered with Eva Hrdinova, and mixed doubles too, partnered with Mate Pavic. In both competitions she lost in second round.
Bojana then played in Istanbul, losing in second round. At least Jovanovski got revenged on Smitkova for Wimbledon. She and Schiavone defeated her and Mayr-Achleitner in doubles. Jovanovski then played in Baku, and reached second final at that tournament after beating Stefanie Voegele. She lost in two sets to Elina Svitolina in final. This was the first final which she lost, after winning her previous two finals. Then she moved to North America. The first tournament she played there was at Washington, just a few days later. Although being tired, she reached the quarterfinals, losing to Marina Erakovic for the second time in a year. She came in Montréal with a solid 9-4 win loss series. But that was crashed with new negative streak. All of her next series of matches in the US were lost in two sets: in Montreal, Cincinnati, New Haven and US Open. Moving to Asia, Jovanovski reached Tashkent final, but in China played three tournaments and won none matches.
2015
Jovanovski played two Australian Open warm-up events, and reached second round in both. At Aussie Open she lost in first round to Roberta Vinci. Bad form continued, with lost in first round in Doha and Kuala Lumpur.[105] She, however, managed to win one match in both Indian Wells and Miami, notable win coming against Mona Barthel in Miami.
Clay court season began for Jovanovski in Marakech, where she lost to third seed Flavia Pennetta. In Madrid, she played qualifications, but lost there in second round to Mariana Duque-Marino. However, at next tournament in Rome, Jovanovski finally won back-to-back matches. First, she won two in qualifying. Then she beat top players to reach third round, Caroline Garcia[106] and top 20 player Madison Keys.[107] She won all matches in three sets, affirming that she finally found confidence and her game back. She was stopped there by Maria Sharapova, but in a good match where she built 3–1 lead in first set.[108]
Playing style and equipment
Jovanovski is an aggressive baseline player.[109] She cites forehand as her favourite shot and hard as her favourite court surface,[110] and stated she would like to improve her court movement and become mentally stronger.[109] Since 2011 US Open she will wear Adidas instead of Nike sports gear and Head rackets.[111]
Personal life
Jovanovski was born to father Zoran, a former football player, and mother Snežana, and also has a sister Viktorija.[109] Her father and coach Zoran Jovanovski introduced her to tennis when she was aged 7.[111] Jovanovski cites Maria Sharapova as her idol for being "an aggressive player and a strong personality".[112] Serbian tennis player Jelena Janković is her good friend.[23] Jovanovski is fluent in Serbian and English.[110] Besides Head, Jovanovski is also sponsored by Knjaz Miloš.[113]
On 9 January 2012, while playing at the 2012 Apia International Sydney, Jovanovski had a car accident, but suffered no injuries.[114]
National identity
During the ITF tournament in Dubai in December 2010, it was rumoured Jovanovski would play for Macedonia, reportedly for "being in the shadow of Jelena and Ana".[115] Her father and coach Zoran Jovanovski denied the rumours at once, saying that "Bojana had never even been in Macedonia" and that the rumour was "made up because of her surname".[115][116]
