Emma Raducanu's stalker has been caught trying to apply for Wimbledon tickets despite being previously banned due to stalking behavior. Raducanu, who encountered this individual at multiple tournaments, felt threatened by his presence. Following a distressing incident in Dubai where he approached her in a coffee shop, Raducanu was left emotionally shaken during her match. Security measures have since improved, with his attempts at accessing the public ballot blocked. Raducanu has expressed that such situations could be managed better in the future, recognizing the need for enhanced safety protocols.
I saw him in the first game of the match and I was like, 'I don't know how I'm going to finish'. I literally couldn't see the ball through tears.
Although she reported it to a member of her team, the information was not passed on to the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) or the tournament until the following day.
