Emma Raducanu is ready to make a comeback after a year of injuries and surgeries. Raducanu recently shared a clip showing off her forehand drills in a practice session.
Raducanu had a difficult 2023 season, as she struggled with various physical issues that affected her form. She injured her ankle before the Australian Open, where she lost in the second round to Coco Gauff in straight sets.
The 21-year-old then suffered a wrist injury that forced her to pull out of several tournaments. Her last match was a 2-6,1-6 loss to Jelena Ostapenko in Stuttgart in April, after which she decided to undergo surgery on both wrists and one of her ankles.
Raducanu has been out of action since then and has dropped to No. 299 in the world rankings. She has been working hard on her recovery and rehabilitation, also has been keeping in touch with her fans through social media, posting updates on her progress.
The Brit has also been spending time with her family and friends and enjoying some hobbies, such as playing the piano, traveling, and attending fashion events.
On Saturday, December 23, Raducanu shared a clip on her Instagram account in which she can be seen hitting powerful forehands on a hard court.
“Enjoying this the most,” Raducanu wrote.
