EMMA RADUCANU
She was forced to call the physio after losing the first set of her second-round match at the Slovenia Open. The top seed led Anna-Lena Friedsam 5-3 but lost four games on the bounce as the German took the opener 7-5, with Raducanu needing a medical time out to get her left thigh heavily bandaged up.
Raducanu is playing in her first tournament since crashing out of the US Open in the first round, after arriving in New York as the defending champion. Now down to No 83 in the world as a result, she is beginning her climb back up the rankings at this week’s WTA 250 event in Portoroz.
