Nottingham Open: Emma Raducanu Confident in Physical Form

Nottingham Open, Britain’s Emma Raducanu expresses confidence in her physical condition as she gears up to kick off her grass-court season. Opting out of the French Open to prioritize her fitness, the 21-year-old last competed in April’s Madrid Open, aiming to recover fully from wrist and ankle surgeries she underwent last year. Raducanu, who made her WTA debut at Nottingham Open in 2021 before clinching the US Open title, prepares to face Japan’s Ena Shibahara in the Nottingham first round on Tuesday.

Reflecting on her journey post-surgery, she emphasizes feeling robust and healthy, attributing her condition to dedicated work with her trainer over recent months. Despite facing challenges in her recovery including mobility issues that required a scooter, Raducanu remains resolute in her commitment to maintaining her well-being. Recalling the difficulties of her recovery process, she acknowledges the progress made since then and the importance of appreciating her current state of health.

Looking back on her journey, Raducanu acknowledges the transformative power of perseverance and gratitude. While she remains focused on her aspirations, she emphasizes the significance of cherishing the progress and health she has attained. With her sights set on the Nottingham Open and beyond, Raducanu approaches her return to competitive tennis with determination and appreciation for her journey.
