(VIDEO) "Feels good to be pushing each other on": Emma Raducanu showcases Behind the Scenes look at training session
WTA
Emma Raducanu's comeback ahead of the 2024 season is confirmed and the preparation has already started in the weeks leading up to Christmas after previous surgery on her wrist and ankle in May.
Raducanu posted some behind-the-scenes pictures of her sweating on a cross trainer at the National Tennis Centre before adding a caveat for those eagle eyed wondering where any training footage is. She was adamant that she did go on court as many would be wondering if she has yet returned outside of gym work.
Out since April, returns in Auckland
"bts @ NTC, feels good to be pushing each other on. didn’t have any court pics but was out there & another good day. 🥵" Raducanu wrote.

Her last match was back in Stuttgart in April where Jelena Ostapenko eased past her 6-2, 6-1. She decided to undergo surgery on both wrists and one of her ankles in May to resolve longstanding injury issues. She has now slipped down to No.298 and has an uphill battle to make it to the Australian Open itself.
She is a few spots outside of the cut off list and with no protected ranking in the main cut off, she could end up playing qualifying. But her official comeback will come prior with the 2024 ASB Classic in Auckland heralding her first action in nearly a year and the first chance to see the former US Open champion in action.

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
