Emma Raducanu is on track to represent Great Britain in next week’s Billie Jean King Cup finals. The 21-year-old has not played a competitive match since September, when she picked up yet another injury at the Korea Open.
Raducanu sprained ligaments in her left ankle while playing against Daria Kasatkina and was forced to retire from the match. She has not been seen on the court since then, but her team have suggested that she is closing in on a return to action.
The one-time US Open champion has been training at the National Tennis Centre this week and is expected to fly out to Malaga for the Billie Jean King Cup finals on Monday.
A member of Raducanu’s team told the Daily Mail: “Emma is training well and being with the team next week is her focus.”
