Johnny Sexton appointed as an assistant coach
EMMA RADUCANU has pulled out of Great Britain’s squad for next week’s Billie Jean King Cup qualifiers against Germany and the Netherlands.
Raducanu reached the quarter-finals of the Miami Open last week, the British number two’s deepest run at a WTA 1000 event and her best tournament performance since her stunning US Open triumph in 2021.
The 22-year-old has featured in seven events in a busy first three months of the year and the PA news agency reported today that she is taking a breather for the next two to three weeks to fit in a mini-training block.
