Emma Raducanu withdrew from Wimbledon on the eve of her first-round match after scans confirmed a stress fracture in her lower right leg. The 23-year-old British No. 1 had been scheduled to face Antonia Ruzic on Monday but pulled out hours before the match. Raducanu had earlier said she would "do everything" to be ready for Wimbledon while nursing the problem, but medical imaging showed the issue had progressed to a stress fracture. The withdrawal continues a difficult 2026 for Raducanu, whose season has been affected by injuries and illness despite signs of encouraging form on court. Wimbledon announced the withdrawal on Sunday, removing Raducanu from the singles draw and ending her bid to play at her home Grand Slam this year.
