This tennis star defeated Marie Bouzkova in the Abu Dhabi Open and after that, she was asked about her surgeries. Raducanu said, “Yeah I had three surgeries in ten days, which was pretty intense. I mean for two-three weeks, you can’t do anything because all that has to swell and all that, you can’t move like I had a scooter and I can’t even use crutches. It’s because of my wrist surgeries. So, it was really difficult and I was kind of swapping two weeks in a cast and then take that of rise and spin. It wasn’t necessarily smooth coming back.”
