Emma Raducanu wraps up the current season and plans to retain coach for 2026.
Raducanu reached the third round in three out of four major tournaments in the current campaign.
Britain's Emma Raducanu has withdrawn from the last two tournaments in 2025 because of a medical condition she has been fighting over the past 10 days.
At 22 years old was scheduled to compete in Tokyo and Hong Kong but opted to return home to rest and recuperate ahead of launching her preparations for 2026.
Those preparations are set to feature her coach Francisco Roig, as both individuals have decided to continue collaborating again next season.
She underwent blood pressure monitoring in her opening round versus Ann Li in Wuhan last week and stopped playing when trailing 6-1 4-1 on an oppressively humid day.
She again required medical attention at this week's Ningbo Open, where she was defeated in three sets to Chinese wildcard Zhu Lin in the opening round.
Her movement was with clear difficulty in the deciding set in the match with Zhu because of back discomfort that has been a concern during parts of the season.
Those results signaled a promising season, in which Raducanu rose into the top 30 globally for the first time in more than three years, concluded with three straight losses.
The athlete was close to victory with three match points prior to falling to Jessica Pegula in round three in the Beijing tournament last month.
She secured twenty-eight matches this year and advanced to the semis in the Washington tournament, but her standout performance was at the Miami event in March.
As Britain's top player reached the quarter-finals of a premier WTA event, overcoming Emma Navarro, the eighth seed en route before losing in a three-set match to the world number four Pegula.
She was coached by Mark Petchey as coach from Miami until Wimbledon, with Francisco Roig stepping in ahead of the US Open.
The first plan with the ex-coach of Rafael Nadal was until the end of the season but they will keep working together, with a training block pencilled in late this year.
The athlete revealed that a three-day test period alongside Roig after Wimbledon was like a "black ops mission" as they aimed to maintain secrecy.
The player was close to beating world number one Aryna Sabalenka at the first competition with Roig in August's Cincinnati tournament.
The coach also accompanied Raducanu in the New York tournament, where she made the third stage prior to losing to Elena Rybakina, the 2022 Wimbledon winner.
