Emma Raducanu on feeling 'wary', coaching change and Queen's 2025
Adversity. Scrutiny. the four years since Emma Raducanu wrote the ultimate feel-good tale of a sporting underdog by winning the US Open as a qualifier, the sequels of social media abuse and stalking have left her dwelling on those three a result, she is now "wary" when she goes 22-year-old was left in tears and hiding behind the umpire's chair four months ago after being targeted by a stalker during a match in said it had been "difficult" to move on and that matters had not been helped by instability in the team around her at a time when she was without a full-time as she prepared to compete in the new women's event at Queen's this week, she looked relaxed on a practice court in front of the dozens of fans who had packed in to catch a glimpse. Raducanu said she has been feeling safer at tournaments and her spirits were also lifted by the return to her team of former coach Nick Cavaday for the grass-court season."I've definitely noticed a difference in how people are watching my back when I'm on the site [at tournaments]," she told BBC Sport. "I'm obviously wary when I go out. I try not to be careless about it because you only realise how much of a problem it is when you're in that situation and I don't necessarily want to be in that situation again."But off the court right now, I feel good. I feel pretty settled. I feel like I have good people around me and anything that was kind of negative I'm just like trying to brush it off as much as I can."But it does not necessarily come naturally."When you see those negative headlines, especially, it is really hard," she added. "I'm someone who cares what people think and what people say. So it is not easy for me to deal with."The British number two begins her Queen's campaign on Monday against Spain's Cristina Bucsa but has played down her expectations and is managing an ongoing issue of back spasms. 'Bad energy lingers' A group of ball girls giggle with excitement as they spot Raducanu hitting at Queen's Club on remains a huge draw to fans, sponsors and tournament organisers. Multiple wrist and ankle operations and a series of other injuries derailed her attempts to build on that Grand Slam triumph in New York and frequent changes to her coaches also prompted questions around her coach, Vladimir Platenik, remained in her team for just a fortnight earlier this she is starting this grass-court season with a more familiar and stable team, bringing back childhood coach Cavaday - who stepped aside for health reasons in January - to work alongside Mark Petchey, a former coach of Andy Murray."[In] the last couple months I found some better form but I've also learnt about myself that I can't necessarily do it with people that I don't trust, or I don't necessarily like so, truthfully, for me that's what's improved as well in the last couple months," she said."I have a pretty good gut feeling and intuition about people who I get on with, and who I trust. "And I think sometimes I try and reason with myself because logically I'm like, 'OK, well, maybe this person can bring me this and I need it', and I try and force myself through it, but I've just realised, it doesn't work."And when there's a bad energy or bad environment, it just lingers."Raducanu reached the Miami Open quarter-finals and fourth round at the Italian Open since linking up with Petchey on a casual basis in March, but lost to Iga Swiatek in the second round of this month's French who oversaw her rise back into the top 60 after she missed much of 2023 while recovering from surgeries, had been Raducanu's sixth full-time coach of her professional career, following partnerships with Nigel Sears, Andrew Richardson, Torben Beltz, Dmitry Tursunov and Sebastian Sachs."I'm happy to see him healthy first of all, it has been a long time since we were last on court together in Australia," Raducanu told a news conference when speaking about Cavaday."Mark is in Paris commentating [on the French Open], Nick was around and it was nice to have a few days with him. They'll both be helping me throughout the grass [season] ... I trust them both a lot." Home comforts at Queen's For Raducanu, being back in London does not feel like being at a tournament - which she likes."I love going for walks, like knowing where everything is and also just being able to switch off and detach," she said. "Your friends, your family are in the city, whereas when you're on site [at other tournaments], you see the other players and you get into that mode but [here] you can go home."And the first women's tournament at Queen's for more than half a century is not only providing Raducanu with home comforts but also the chance to try out a rare spot of doubles with British number one Katie Boulter. "I'm quite nervous because I haven't played doubles and I haven't really practised doubles," Raducanu said."So I'm just, like, not really sure what to do, but I'm just going to hope that Katie tells me what to do. I'm good at taking directions. So, if someone just tells me what to do, I'll just try and execute as best I can."She has said she is "pretty chilled out" about the grass-court season which culminates with Wimbledon at the end of this month - a tournament where she first attracted attention with a run to the last 16 a couple of months before her US Open exploits."I don't necessarily want to be too amped up, too overhyped, but I'm just taking it as it comes really first," she all, she has bigger things to prove to others."I want to be a message and just an example of someone who has faced a lot of adversity, a lot of scrutiny, a lot of judgement and try and come out of that as best as I can," she said."And for anyone who's kind of been like dropped or had a lot of rejections to try and come out on the other side as best as possible. "It's something that I wouldn't say I've come out and done yet but I'm trying and I'm on the way to."

‘What should I tell you?' – Thomas Tuchel claims he is not feeling the pressure after abject England win over Andorra
THOMAS TUCHEL claims he is not feeling the heat as England boss — despite failing to fire up the nation's World Cup hopes since taking over. The German slammed his players' poor attitude and body language after they limped to a 1-0 win away against Andorra. 4 4 Their World Cup qualifier in Barcelona followed uninspiring performances in Tuchel's first two games against Albania and Latvia in March. And despite his Three Lions boasting maximum points from three qualifiers, the team have shown little sign of being in any shape to win the trophy. But ahead of tomorrow night's friendly against Senegal in Nottingham, Tuchel said: 'I always feel pressure as I am not happy with myself. 'The biggest pressure comes from myself. We have three wins and three clean sheets and have a friendly match on Tuesday. I have felt more pressure than that.' Tuchel pulled no punches after Saturday's win. Asked if it was a risk attacking his stars so early in his reign, he said: 'What risk? You were in the stadium. What should I tell you? "That we played a good match and are happy. The risk is only that you exaggerate it and make something of it that was not there. 'Everything I said, I said already to the team. There is no harm done. 'We were not happy and no single player will be happy with what we showed against Andorra. 'Why would the coach be? And why would we be shy of saying so? If we want to get better, we first need to address that we were not happy with the end of both halves. 'They looked bored' - Roy Keane slams England's 'poor attitude' as Thomas Tuchel admits 'I didn't like' Andorra effort 'I didn't name a single name. We do this as a team. It's always a 'we' — and I just didn't like how we ended the match and the way that we ended the first half. ' I didn't like the attitude or the energy level and how that dropped. I liked the beginning of the team. 'It always includes me. Everything I say, I tell the players. 'I didn't like the attitude in the end. We lacked the urgency at the end. 'We played with fire. We didn't play like we have to play in a World Cup qualifier when we were only 1-0 up. 'What did I do wrong? Yes, I am included. But I don't know. We still won a match. We still won a World Cup qualifier and I am the first one to ask if we could do better.' Senegal will provide Tuchel's team with much stronger opposition compared to his first three matches. The ex-Chelsea and Bayern Munich chief said: 'It would have been a good test anyway. No matter how well or not well we played against Andorra. 'We don't have lots of matches. We worship every training and match.' Tuchel is set to ring the changes at a sold-out City Ground, with Conor Gallagher, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Declan Rice likely to feature. 4 4
