Pourquoi c'est important
Emma Raducanu, the 2021 US Open champion, has been dealing with a shin problem ahead of Wimbledon.
Emma Raducanu's chances of being fit for Wimbledon look to be in considerable doubt after the British number one cut short her practice session on Saturday. The 23-year-old postponed her pre-tournament media shortly after quitting a practice set against Russian Anna Kalinskaya with 10 minutes remaining. Raducanu, who is seeded 30th at the All England Club, is due to start her campaign on Monday against Croatia's Antonia Ruzic on Court One (13:00 BST). The 2021 US Open champion did not train on Thursday and Friday because of what is believed to be a shin problem, but returned to the court on Saturday to test her fitness. Wearing strapping around her lower right leg, Raducanu looked tentative in an hour with her team on the Aorangi Park practice courts, where her mobility was not overly tested. From there she went straight to court three to hit with Kalinskaya, but lost four games in their practice set before deciding she could not continue.
