Man given restraining order in Dubai on ticket waiting list

All England Club employ fixated threat specialists

Emma Raducanu’s stalker has been blocked from buying tickets for this month’s Wimbledon Championships in the public ballot, it has emerged.

Security staff at the All England Club discovered that the man, who has never been named, was on the waiting list when they did a re-sweep of the ballot, after he was given a restraining order in Dubai in February.

The authorities in Dubai acted after the British No 1 was forced to hide in tears behind the umpire’s chair when the “fixated” admirer was removed from the stands and detained by police during her second-round match against Karolina Muchova.
