Raducanu snubbed for LTA Player of the Year Award

Emma Raducanu failed to win the LTA's Player of the Year award for the second year in a row after she was declared the winner in 2021.

In the previous year, Emma Raducanu garnered multiple awards, including the LTA's Player of the Year and the 2022 Laureus World Breakthrough of the Year Award. This year, despite finishing as the top-ranked British female player, she was nominated again for the LTA's Player of the Year, but unfortunately did not win the award.

The award was won by Dart who is the second-best ranked player from GB. Dart was one of the players on the team that went to the semi-finals of the Billie Jean King Cup last year. Additionally, Dart's achievements included reaching the quarterfinals in Nottingham and Eastbourne, as well as advancing to the fourth round in Indian Wells.

She said:

“Last year was a huge milestone for me, breaking the top 100. Notably, representing Great Britain is always a big part of my year and being able to deliver some wins for our team meant so much. I want to thank the fans for their ongoing support, I hope to come back stronger for the remainder of 2023.”
