I don’t know if she has a full time strength & conditioning coach but she seems to lurch from one injury to another. Seems to be in a vicious circle now of picking up niggles on a very regular basis.

Very annoying bit like Laura Robson in terms of injuries and waste of talent that could have done so much more

Yeah what a waste of talent, what could have been, at 20 she's obviously finished and on the scrap heap

This is true however she won a us open clearly very talented but has done nothing of note since apart from being injured. Laura Robson pulled up a few trees in her early years also but then fell away I suspect the same is happening with Emma

Can imagine that wrists and elbows must be constantly a problem, simply due to repetitive strain of training every day. Surprised there aren't more wrist/elbow surgeries in tennis.

I think there are. It’s just that they’re not reported on, unless it’s a Brit or a Top 10 player.
Most take breaks during the year in an effort to manage the strains and niggles, so that they don’t develop into something more serious.

Britain's Emma Raducanu overcame a build-up disrupted by injury and illness to earn a gutsy first-round win at the prestigious Indian Wells event.

Raducanu, 20, was unsure she would be fit enough to play because of a recurring wrist injury, but won 6-2 6-3 against Montenegro's Danka Kovinic.
The 2021 US Open champion, ranked 77th, faces Poland's Magda Linette next.

Good for her I do wish her well but no doubt will be reading about her retiring from this tournament in due course

Yes, as happens every tournament for every player. Normally happens within a week too. If not, then two weeks.

La di da. I've got no interest whatsoever in Emma Raducanu. La di da di da. Minding my own business here on the GPG, just looking for some interesting stuff. Oh look! There's a thread called "Emma Raducanu". I wonder what that's about? I wonder if it's about a subject that I have any interest in at all? Oh, that's very disappointing, it's about Emma Raducanu. I've got no interest in that whatsoever, better read something else. But wait! My interest is so little that I am going to leave a reply to take up some of my non-interest time of the day. After this I am going to read a book on the History of Fulham and how to make a Victoria Sandwich. All because I want to demonstrate that I have no interest in that either.

Has got a difficult game tonight against Haddad Maia ranked 13 in the world. Will show where her game is really at.
Should be a good watch.
 

Emma Raducanu

Don't forget the USA Clocks moved so Indian Wells is now a 6pm start

She plays second to an ATP match
 

Emma Raducanu

Unless the men play a 3 hour match
F Cerundolo v Auger Aliassime
 

Emma Raducanu

Wins on her 4th match point.

Well done Emma!
 

Emma Raducanu

An impressive performance against one of the top performing female players in the last year.
 

Emma Raducanu

Wow, that was some match. Some very high quality hitting from both players.
 

Emma Raducanu

Will probably be playing Swiatek (or Andreescu) in round 4. That will be seriously tough!
 

Emma Raducanu

Plays Top Seed Swiatek

No day off
The whole draw plays on Tuesday
But it's the night match so overnight tonight

Alcaraz is on first at 0100
Raducanu on not before 0300
 

Emma Raducanu

Out now to world number 1
 

Emma Raducanu

She had two break points in the first set but couldn't convert them. Once Swiatek broke her it all went downhill from then.
Seemed like she's free of injuries so it should get better with a few more matches.
Maybe Wimbledon.

Normal service or lack of it on the court seems to have resumed for Emma. Now outside the top 100 and another hand injury keeping her off the court. Although when she has managed to get on court it’s led to early defeats in tournaments

List your achievements at 20 please. For balance.
 

Emma Raducanu

The second hand operation is expected to take place in the next two weeks, to ensure she always has one hand free for everyday tasks.

That's a good idea

Laura Robson mk2. Hope she can get a clear run when she's back.

Is the globetrotting lifestyle for everyone? I mean she’s probably been practicing and schlepping round the world for points and junior championships leading up to this, since she was very young. By all means start again, if the will is there, but maybe start smaller eg US or Europe, not everywhere. Then build her schedule back up as she matures.
 

Emma Raducanu

Looking forward to seeing her on I am a celebrity get me out of here
 

Emma Raducanu

Sacked yet another coach, gets through more of them than Watford FC do

This is not a good look at all for her. Either she (or her agent or her father or a combination of all 3) are not very good at selecting a suitable coach for her, or the problem is not the coach.

From what I have heard from someone that knew her well as a junior up until she was 18, the coaches are not the problem but someone else inside her inner circle is.
