Emma Raducanu’s recent match at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships took an unexpected and unsettling turn when she spotted someone in the stands who visibly distressed her. The British tennis star, who faced Karolina Muchova in the second round on Tuesday, broke into tears mid-match and sought refuge behind the umpire’s chair, prompting an immediate response from security personnel.
Shock, fear, and panic – match immediately halted!
Raducanu, 22, was trailing 0-2 in the opening set when she suddenly became emotional, stopping play to speak with the umpire. Moments later, she appeared overwhelmed, covering her face in distress. The match was briefly halted as tournament security intervened, and an individual was swiftly escorted out of the venue. The WTA later disclosed that this was the same person who had approached Raducanu a day earlier, displaying unsettling behavior.
