Emma Raducanu ‘completely stopped from moving’ as injury woes continue in defeat

Emma Raducanu Marketa Vondrousova Billie Jean King Cup Czech Republic Britain

Emma Raducanu has admitted blisters completely stopped her from moving as she succumbed to a one-sided defeat against Marketa Vondrousova in the Billie Jean King Cup.

The Brit, ranked at number 12 in the world, was visibly uncomfortable and was wincing in pain as she lost 6-1 6-1 in just 53 minutes. It’s not the first time Raducanu has faced issues with blisters as she seeks some sort of form in 2022.

The US Open champion is making her BJK Cup debut this weekend as Britain’s top player, which began positively yesterday. She won through 7-5 7-5 over the Czech Republic’s Tereza Martincova in what was the Brit’s first match in the team event and her professional debut on a clay court.
