Emma Raducanu has withdrawn from this week’s WTA tournament in Austin, Texas, because of tonsillitis.

The 20-year-old’s next target will be the prestigious tournament in Indian Wells, which begins in 10 days.

“I’m sorry to have to withdraw from the ATX Open,” said Raducanu.

“I am currently suffering from tonsillitis and am unable to compete this week.”

Raducanu had flown to Austin in plenty of time to prepare, but started to feel unwell upon arrival. She will complete her recovery there before flying to southern California.
