💨 Abstract

Emma Raducanu, the former US Open champion, is using acupuncture to manage back spasms before the French Open despite her fear of needles. She had similar issues ahead of the Australian Open. Raducanu, who avoided the qualifying rounds last year, will face China's Wang Xinyu, with a potential match against defending champion Iga Swiatek. Additionally, she revealed that she wishes she had listened to her body earlier regarding wrist pain, which led to surgery.
