Emma Raducanu, the 2021 U.S. Open champion, is gearing up for her return to the tournament with a focused and deliberate approach. Despite playing fewer than 30 matches this year, Raducanu remains confident in her preparation for the final Grand Slam of the season.
After a fourth-round exit at Wimbledon and opting out of the Olympics, Raducanu made a strategic decision to limit her tournament appearances, choosing quality over quantity in her schedule. She skipped the North American hard-court swing, including tournaments in Canada, to prioritize her training ahead of the U.S. Open.
