Emma Raducanu withdraws from Wimbledon in a last-minute decision hours before her scheduled first-round appearance. She was due to play Antonia Ruzic on No. 1 Court, but Raducanu announces her withdrawal via a statement posted on social media on Sunday.
Multiple outlets report that the change comes after Raducanu abandons Wimbledon-related preparation, including a training match, and cancels planned media commitments. The reports describe the decision as coming close to the start of her tournament run, with Raducanu stating that she has done everything possible.
While the articles discuss the timing and immediate fallout—including the cancellation of her appearance and obligations around the event—they do not agree on a detailed medical or technical explanation in the provided excerpts. In all accounts, the core point is that Raducanu does not take the court at Wimbledon and that her planned match against Ruzic does not proceed as scheduled.
