Tennis player, who became youngest British woman to reach last 16 in Open era, appears to hyperventilate on court
Emma Raducanu’s gloriously unexpected Wimbledon adventure ended in sadness on Monday after the 18-year-old from Kent was forced to retire from her last-16 match after appearing to hyperventilate on court.
Urged on by a packed Court No 1 crowd, and with millions watching on prime-time BBC One, the A-level student started to grimace and hold her stomach during the first set of her match against Ajla Tomljanović, which she lost 4-6.
