John McEnroe has stood by his criticism of Emma Raducanu's Wimbledon exit last year as the British teenager prepares to return to SW19.
The British No 1 was still largely unknown when she was handed a wildcard to the the sport's most famous grass-court event in 2021, but burst onto the scene by winning her first three games. That set up a last-16 clash with Croatia's Ajla Tomljanovic.
However, Raducanu visibly struggled throughout and, after losing the opening set, retired early on in the second. The teenager later cited breathing difficulties and sickness but her explanation was criticised by the notoriously outspoken McEnroe.
