What’s happened to Emma Raducanu? Form, coaching changes and ranking ahead of US Open champion’s French Open debut

 

 

 

Emma Raducanu dazzled the sporting world with her incredible US Open triumph last year.

 

 

 

Since then, the 19-year-old’s debut season on the WTA Tour has proved to be a steep learning curve.

 

 

 

Injury, illness, coaching changes, defeats and some memorable wins have all been part of the story since, as Raducanu adjusts to the relentless demands of elite-level tennis.

 

 

 

Here, we sum up her story so far ahead of a keenly anticipated French Open debut at Roland Garros.

 

 

 

To say Raducanu’s march to glory at Flushing Meadows was unprecedented probably underplays it to a large degree.

 

 

 

In what had come to be a familiarly dominant performance, her powerful play from inside the baseline inspired a 6-4 6-3 victory over Leylah Fernandez in the final.
