Emma Raducanu came up with some good news for her fans as she announced her arrival into the sport after a long injury. The young Britisher declared that she would be playing at the Australian Open and would be willing to kickstart the new campaign on a high note. However, initially, she would have to go through the qualifiers to make her way into the main round of the tournament. But, things have changed now.

In a recent revelation, Emma Raducanu finally got the chance to make her way into the main draw of the Australian Open, and that too without playing the qualifiers. An injury to the American player Lauren Davis opened the doors for Raducanu.

It’s a great chance for the 21-year-old tennis star to show off her skills to a larger audience.

Now, this new opportunity in the Australian Open might be another important step in her career. After being out of the tennis court for long, she would be hoping to repeat her 2021 heroics and win everyone’s heart.

Moreover, Lauren Davis’ exit from the tournament hasn’t been the only one to have given Emma Raducanu a boost for the competition. The turn of events has included some of the big names like Caty McNally, Irina Camelia Begu, and also Petra Kvitova who recently revealed her pregnancy.

Petra Kvitova’s withdrawal meant that Radcanu was just a step away from qualification

Earlier, tennis legend Petra Kvitova announced her withdrawal from the tournament due to her pregnancy. This allowed Tamara Zindansek to get a slot directly into the main round of the Australian Open. Right behind Zidansek was none other than Raducanu who would have got the next slot, should anyone retire.

And now, Lauren Davis’ withdrawal due to injury has paved the way for the British prodigy. After a phenomenal start at the Auckland Open, the tennis professional will hope to continue the momentum in the tournament and carry it forth to the Australian Open. Her next clash is against Elina Svitolina and the fans will be anticipating a massive thriller.
