Emma Raducanu has withdrawn from the Italian Open due to a post-viral illness.
Raducanu took part in media obligations before later deciding to pull out of the tournament. She has not yet played a match on clay this season, with her last appearance coming at Indian Wells.
The British star rose to global attention in 2021 when she won the US Open at just 18 years old. She made history by becoming the first qualifier ever to win a Grand Slam singles title, doing so without dropping a set throughout the tournament.
Since that breakthrough, Raducanu has dealt with several injury setbacks, like wrist and ankle problems that has forced her to spend long periods away from competition.
Fans will now hope to see her back in action soon, ahead of the clay-court season and the French Open.
