Emma Raducanu has been out of action for quite some time now. The former US Open champion had to undergo knee and hand surgery a couple of months ago. Since then, she has missed two slams, including the ongoing Wimbledon, and is unlikely to return anytime soon. However, the Briton was still spotted at Wimbledon for off-court purposes.

While Raducanu’s tennis career might be paused here, she is still attracting enough sponsorship deals. In fact, she was spotted at Wimbledon with her sponsors, probably for shooting. In the meantime, the US Open Champion also bumped into Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Cambridge and Emma Raducanu had a brief exchange regarding the latter’s recovery status.

The former world number 10 said that she enjoyed clicking selfies with the fans. “It was really fun. Yesterday we were there at 7.30 and it was packed.“, Raducanu said via The Sun.

Middleton then moved on to the important part. She inquired about Raducanu’s fitness, to which Raducanu replied, “It’s rehab as well and light exercises, but not working out yet, which is annoying. I start training in a month.” The Princess of Wales later asked if Raducanu was going to watch any matches at Wimbledon and she replied, “Some of them. I don’t end up watching too many because I feel like it’s a bit fresh right now.”
