Raducanu’s absence from competition since April 2023, coupled with missed opportunities at the French Open, Wimbledon, and the U.S. Open, has led to her ranking plummeting to 214th in the world. However, the young star has been diligently working on her recovery and rehabilitation.

In an interview with the BBC, Raducanu revealed, “Next season I’ll be back.” She acknowledged the difficulty of watching this year’s Grand Slam tournaments as a spectator but remained focused on her journey back to the tennis court. She resumed practicing in August after undergoing surgeries on both wrists and her ankle.

Someone told me, ‘worry when they’re not talking about you.'”
