Emma Raducanu’s summer schedule: When is she playing next? Will Raducanu play Paris 2024 Olympics, Wimbledon? – Eurosport

Emma Raducanu is set to make her return to action on the grass after missing the French Open.

The 21-year-old withdrew from qualifying at the Grand Slam after missing out on automatic entry and a wild card.

But with Wimbledon less than a month away, Raducanu will soon be back on grass courts.

Emma Raducanu’s grass season will start at the Rothesay Open in Nottingham.

The main draw at the WTA 250 event gets under way on Monday, June 10, with the finals on Sunday, June 16.

Raducanu, who missed last summer’s grass swing after undergoing surgery, will join British No. 1 Katie Boulter at the tournament.

Raducanu might then play the Rothesay Classic in Birmingham, which starts on June 17. However, she is not currently on the entry list.

She has been given a wild card to play the Rothesay International in Eastbourne.

The tournament starts on June 24 and Raducanu will be joined by four-time Grand Slam winner Naomi Osaka and top-five players Elena Rybakina and Jessica Pegula.

Raducanu should be back at Wimbledon this summer.

Having missed out last year, Raducanu’s current ranking position of No. 205 would not be enough for a direct entry place.

However, with good performances over the next fortnight she could move high enough up the rankings to secure automatic entry, or as a British player she would likely be given a wild card if she doesn’t get into the main draw.

Raducanu could also use her protected ranking but at the French Open she was still outside automatic qualification for the main draw.

Raducanu made the fourth round on her Wimbledon debut in 2021 and was beaten in the second round in 2022.

The 2024 Paris Olympics are fast approaching, with the tennis event at the Games played on clay at Roland-Garros, home of the French Open, from July 27 to August 4.

Raducanu is eligible to play for Great Britain after competing in the Billie Jean King Cup qualifiers in April, but she is not ranked high enough to secure an automatic spot.

The 56 highest-ranked singles players on the ATP and WTA tours on June 10 have been offered places, with a maximum of four per country.

There is another route available for Raducanu, however.

There are also two places in each singles draw for players who have won a Grand Slam title or an Olympic gold medal, but don’t qualify by direct entry.

These are spots that could be utilised by Raducanu, Naomi Osaka or Angelique Kerber, none of whom are ranked high enough to qualify directly, but have won at least one Grand Slam title.

If all three looked to gain entry through this route then the places will be offered to the players with the highest number of titles (Grand Slams or gold medals), and if that’s the same it will be given to the higher-ranked player on June 10.
