Emma Raducanu set for first match in front of UK crowd since US Open win as plans change

Emma Raducanu will make her first grass court appearance of the season at the Nottingham Open next month. The young tennis star was given a wildcard to play at the tournament, which gets underway on June 6th.

Last week the Brit crashed out of the ongoing French Open in just the second round and she is already getting to work on the slick low bouncing surface in the UK. The teen was set to play her first tournament back on home soil at the Rothesay Birmingham Classic, but has opted to add a second pre- Wimbledon tournament to her schedule.

The British number one said: "I'm excited to return to Nottingham and it will be a great opportunity to play in front of British crowds for the first time this year. This event will always be special to me as I played my first tournament on the WTA Tour here last June and I can't wait to go back."
