Emma Raducanu insisted she is not “overly concerned” about her ongoing back issues but conceded she may need to re-think her next steps after bowing out in the Queen’s quarter-finals with a 6-2 6-4 loss to Chinese first-seed Qinwen Zheng.
Raducanu, who officially supplants Katie Boulter as British number one on Monday, planned for next week’s Berlin Open to be the next step on her quest to secure seeding at Wimbledon, but required an off-court medical time out before the second set.
