I was lucky to be the only person watching and filming Emma #Raducanu’s first practice session since rolling her ankle. Here’s a little bit of the beginning. If you want me to post clips from the whole session later on, follow me or retweet. 🎾👍 #AO2023 #AustralianOpen #WTA
VIDEO: Raducanu returns to practice court determined to be ready for Australian Open despite injury doubts
WTATuesday, 10 January 2023 at 18:00
Emma Raducanu returned to practice ahead of the Australian Open despite her injury still bothering her as footage from her practice shows her with limited movement.
Emma Raducanu injured her ankle recently and she was forced to retire against Viktoria Kuzmova in Auckland. There is hope she'll be ready to play at the Australian Open but footage from her recent practice doesn't show a player that will be able to compete. Raducanu did some racquet work but for the most part, avoided any sudden movement on her ankle and she was very limited in practice.
Whether that can get better in a few days remains to be seen but for now Raducanu is still part of the draw and plans to play. Check her out practising below.
