During her time off the court, the Toronto-born went through wrist and ankle surgeries and it will be interesting to see how she will perform at the highest level after spending so much time on the sidelines.

Raducanu broke onto the scene in 2021 when she lifted the US Open after beating Canada’s Leylah Fernandez in straight sets with a score of 6-4, 6-3.

The victory was an even more special one considering that the former world number 10 started the competition through the qualifying stage.

However, since then, Raducanu has struggled to maintain her form and fitness. It was for this reason, she participated in just one Grand Slam out of the four.

In the Australian Open, she was knocked out after losing the second-round tie to America’s Coco Gauff with a score of 6-3, 7-6.
