British tennis star Emma Raducanu ends the current season and has decided to continue with trainer into the 2026 season.
Raducanu made it to the third stage in three out of four Grand Slam events during the season.
Emma Raducanu from Great Britain has withdrawn from her final two events this season because of a health issue that has affected her over the past 10 days.
The 22-year-old had planned to participate in events in Asia but has decided to fly home to rest and recuperate ahead of launching next year's training.
Her upcoming training are set to feature trainer Francisco Roig, as both individuals will keep partnering again next season.
She had her blood pressure taken during her first-round match with Ann Li in Wuhan and stopped playing when behind 6-1 4-1 on a very muggy occasion.
Another medical visit was necessary a visit from the doctor at the Ningbo Open this week, where she fell in a three-set match to Zhu Lin, a Chinese wildcard in round one.
Raducanu was also moving with clear difficulty in the third set versus Zhu because of back discomfort that has been a concern at times this year.
Those results meant an encouraging season, in which the player advanced into the world's top 30 after a long gap since her previous ranking, finished with a trio of defeats.
Raducanu had three match points before losing to Jessica Pegula in the third round in Beijing last month.
The player achieved 28 victories during 2025 and advanced to the semis in Washington, but her most impressive week was at the Miami Open in March.
The British number one reached the quarter-finals of a premier WTA event, overcoming Emma Navarro, the eighth seed during the tournament before losing in a three-set match to the world number four Pegula.
Her coach was Mark Petchey between Miami and Wimbledon, with Roig assuming the role in time for the US Open.
The first plan with Rafael Nadal's former coach was until the end of the season but the partnership will continue, with planned training sessions in the coming months.
Raducanu told that the trial session with Roig post-Wimbledon was like a "secret mission" as the meeting was kept under wraps.
She nearly succeeded to overcoming Sabalenka, the world number one at the first competition with Roig in Cincinnati during August.
Roig was also with Raducanu in New York, where she reached the third round before being beaten by 2022 Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina.
