Meanwhile, the Brit star has talked about her issues with being back in the game. Emma Raducanu revealed that she is facing intense back spasms after her victory over Daria in the opening round. She revealed that she somehow managed to play the second game against Collins, but it got annoying and frustrating after winning the first set of the game.
“Well, I felt it after the first round. And then yesterday, I just tried to manage it and got treatment. But, I mean, it was pretty stiff and sore. I've had bad back problems before the start of the year; I was out for, like, a few months because of it. Yeah, it's annoying; it's frustrating. I get these spasms and they are quite intense and can last quite a long time. I'll just try and make it better," Emma Raducanu said.
