Emma Raducanu confirms ASB Classic as preparation for Australian Open 2024

Emma Raducano will make her comeback at the WTA 250 Auckland Open to prepare for the Australian Open. She didn't get the initial wildcard in the Australian Open entry list. She could get a chance in the next wildcard list or need to play as qualifier. She is putting her in gym to improve her fitness and sharing her time in court for her grand comeback. Everyone is waiting to see the clash of Emma again. Coach Rick Macci is among those who envision a bright future for Raducano. Rick Macci, former coach of Serena Williams, spoke about the upcoming return of Emma Raducano and assured that she has the potential and mindset to return to the top. The 21-year-old Briton only competed in five tournaments this season and will make her comeback at the WTA 250 ASB Classic in New Zealand. Expectations for Raducano after her 2021 US Open title have not yet been fully met due to the inconsistency and injuries of the young tennis player. Nevertheless, there are those who still hold hope that she will once again showcase her immense talent and become a prominent figure on the tour upon her return. You don't lose the talent or the skill, you lose the desire. With Emma, the only thing that's a little concerning is when I hear she says I wish I wouldn't have won the US Open because everything changed. That's brutal," he said to Tennis Infinity. I respect her honesty, but as a little girl, you pick up the racket. You love to play, it's so innocent. Your goal is to like, I want to be like that someday. I want to win tournaments and win a Grand Slam," Macci added. American tennis star Coco Gauff will also play in ASB Classic tennis tournament. She had a great run in 2023 season with US Open title
