Emma Raducanu returns to tennis at United Cup after injury lay-off

Emma Raducanu will make her much-anticipated return to tennis in January 2027 at the United Cup after missing six months due to a shin injury. The 23-year-old has not competed since June, when she suffered a stress fracture. Raducanu, who is representing Great Britain, will participate in the mixed team event that includes matches against Australia and France. She is expected to use a special ranking of 38 to enter international tournaments, allowing her to compete in key events despite her current ranking of 107. Her training began in September, and she may also conduct a warm-weather camp before the tournament.
