Emma Raducanu, who is one of the dark horses at the first major of the season, is preparing for the 2023 Australian Open with a cautious approach.
After rolling her ankle at the ASB Classic in Auckland earlier this month, Raducanu's participation in the first Grand Slam of the season was thrown into doubt. However, the young star has now returned to the practice court, although her practice sessions are shorter than usual.
Raducanu, who is known for her aggressive playing style and powerful groundstrokes, was spotted on the practice court at Melbourne Park on Thursday, spending only 25 minutes on the court. The brief practice session was focused on footwork drills and hitting with a coach, but no intense training or match play was observed.
The injury to her ankle is a concern for the young player, who has had a history of injuries in the past. Raducanu has previously missed several tournaments due to injuries, and the decision to limit her practice time is likely a precautionary measure to ensure she is fully fit for the tournament.
The news of her limited practice time has caused some concern among fans and experts, who are wondering if she will be able to perform at her best during the tournament. However, Raducanu has proved time and time again that she is a fighter on the court and has the ability to come back from injuries.
The 2023 Australian Open begins on January 16th, and fans are eagerly awaiting to see if Raducanu will be able to compete at her best despite her limited practice time. The tournament promises to be an exciting one, with a star-studded draw.
