Player hid behind umpire’s chair during incident
Queen’s Club next on agenda for 2021 US Open winner
British No 2 Emma Raducanu admitted she was “wary” when going out following her ordeal with a stalker at the Dubai Championships earlier this year.
The 22-year-old hid behind the umpire’s chair in tears after receiving repeated unwanted attention from a “fixated” man before and during a second-round match against Karolina Muchova in February.
At the time, Raducanu said she “couldn’t see the ball through tears” and could “barely breathe”, while she revealed now that the situation was exacerbated by her being unsettled without a full-time coach.
