Raducanu out of Chicago Classic

Emma Raducanu has pulled out of the Chicago Fall Tennis Classic, which would have been her first appearance since her US Open triumph.

The Chicago WTA tournament is seen as a replacement for Asian events cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Raducanu, 18, is now expected to return to action at the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells – which starts on October 6.

With that in mind, the 18-year-old has already returned to hard training ahead of her new competitive outing, and shared an update of her workout on Instagram.

Raducanu posted a short video clip of herself pounding away on the treadmill in a gym yesterday, along with the line: “back with a sweat on.”
