Emma Raducanu’s quest for a second career title at the 2024 Korea Open came to a heartbreaking halt today as she was forced to retire from her quarter-final match against top-seeded Daria Kasatkina. After receiving medical attention for a foot injury, Raducanu withdrew from the match following a 6-1 loss in the first set. This injury marks yet another setback in her career, as the 21-year-old Brit has faced a series of health challenges since her meteoric rise to fame with her 2021 US Open triumph. Raducanu had previously received treatment for the same foot issue during her last-16 victory against China’s Yuan Yue, and concerns about her fitness for upcoming tournaments like the China Open have now emerged. This unfortunate incident adds to a growing list of injury-related disruptions that have hindered her progress.
