Injury Woes for Emma Raducanu? Taped Thigh in Practice Raises Speculations Ahead of Australian Open

Emma Raducanu gave her fans a perfect New Year gift after she announced her comeback to the sport after a long injury. The British sensation, who last played in April last year suggested that she would love to make her comeback before the Australian Open. Currently playing in the ASB Classic, the 21-year-old has started her campaign on a good note.

However, recent reports suggest that Raducanu could be at the risk of a potential injury yet again. A recent post shared on Twitter has made many wonder if the young gun is down from yet another injury.

Is Emma Raducanu suffering from a potential injury yet again?

Emma Raducanu was finally back on the tennis court after being away because of an injury. But now, concerns are being raised about another possible injury. In a recent revelation, Raducanu has been seen practising with bandages on her thighs. This has made some fans wonder if she might be dealing with another injury.

Currently playing in ASB Classic, she has made her way all the way to the round of 16. Bandages on the thighs could also mean that she might not want to risk herself just days after making a comeback and could be seen as a  precautionary step. However, nothing could be confirmed as of now and her fans would be waiting for a final confirmation.

Fans are hoping it’s nothing serious and that Raducanu will stay healthy as she continues playing. They want her to do her best without any more health problems.

I’m just really happy to be back on the tour. Can’t wait to start this season and carry on, hopefully injury-free & healthy.
