Emma Raducanu has been absent from competitive tennis for over four months after sustaining a stress fracture at Queen's Club in June. The former US Open champion has not featured in a single WTA Tour match since, leaving fans and pundits guessing about her timeline for return.
Recent training videos posted by Raducanu have offered a glimmer of hope, though there is no confirmation she will step onto a competitive court again before the year is out. The clips suggest rehabilitation is progressing, but rushing back could prove counterproductive.
Should Raducanu sit out the remainder of the season, she would become eligible for a protected ranking from January - a mechanism that would grant her entry to up to eight tournaments, including two Grand Slams. That could open the door to the Australian Open, although without a seeding she would face the prospect of a bruising first-round draw.
Greg Rusedski has backed the decision to delay her comeback, as Sky Sports reports. The former British number one believes the extended break could allow Raducanu to develop both physically and technically, setting her up for a stronger 2027 campaign rather than a premature and risky return.
