Emma Raducanu reached the third round in three Grand Slam tournaments Grand Slams in the current campaign.

Emma Raducanu from Great Britain has pulled out of her remaining competitions in 2025 because of the illness she has been battling for the last week and a half.

The 22-year-old was due to play in events in Asia but opted to return home to recover prior to beginning plans for the 2026 season.

Her upcoming training will include her coach Francisco Roig, as both individuals have agreed to work together again next season.

The tennis professional required blood pressure checks while playing the initial match against Ann Li in Wuhan and retired when losing 6-1 4-1 on a very muggy occasion.

Another medical visit was necessary medical attention at the recent Ningbo Open, where she lost in three sets to local wildcard Zhu Lin in round one.

Her movement was noticeably restricted in the final set against Zhu owing to a lower back issue that has troubled her during parts of the season.

Such performances followed a positive campaign, in which Raducanu rose into the world's top 30 after a long gap since her previous ranking, ended with three successive defeats.

The athlete was close to victory with three match points before losing to Pegula in the third stage in the Beijing tournament last month.

The player achieved 28 victories in the current season and made it to the semi-final round in the Washington tournament, but her most impressive week was at the Miami Open in March.

As Britain's top player advanced to the quarters of this WTA 1000 tournament, defeating eighth seed Emma Navarro during the tournament prior to a loss in a three-set match to Pegula, ranked fourth.

She was coached by Mark Petchey between Miami and Wimbledon, with Roig taking over for the US Open.

The first plan with the ex-coach of Rafael Nadal was until the end of the season but the collaboration persists, with planned training sessions late this year.

She mentioned that a three-day test period with Roig post-Wimbledon was like a "covert operation" as they tried to keep the meeting secret.

She came very close to beating world number one Aryna Sabalenka at their initial event as a team in Cincinnati during August.

The coach also accompanied Raducanu in New York, where she advanced to round three before being beaten by Rybakina, champion at Wimbledon in 2022.
