Emma Raducanu will make her second appearance for Great Britain's Billie Jean King Cup team in France, after being sidelined due to injuries. She will join other players on indoor clay, the same surface as her upcoming WTA tournament in Stuttgart.
Emma Raducanu will be welcomed back into Great Britain ’s Billie Jean King Cup team “with open arms”, according to Katie Boulter.
Boulter, who is a brand ambassador for Lexus, told the PA news agency: “I’m very pleased. We’ve missed her. We love having her back. Keothavong’s side are undoubtedly underdogs, particularly having lost to France at the same stage last year on hard courts in Coventry. “We’ve got to keep it very realistic, it’s everyone’s first week on clay. It’s not my favourite surface but I’m very excited to get on it. I think we will come together as a team and keep trying to push each other and I’m sure we’ll play some really good tennis.”
