INDIAN WELLS, California : Britain's Emma Raducanu has learned that good fortune can be fleeting and bad luck can cruelly compound itself but said she is on the upswing following her second-round victory at Indian Wells on Saturday.
She suffered an ankle injury in the lead up to January's Australian Open, tonsillitis that forced her to withdraw ahead of last week's Austin Open and the recent flaring up of a wrist injury that cut short her 2022 season."But then very quickly I think you create your own luck. It works both ways. I won the U.S. Open as well. I have to take the bad luck sometimes because good fortune has also come upon me.
At Flushing Meadows in 2021, Raducanu became the first qualifier to win a major and did so without dropping a set. But last year she struggled with injuries and uneven play and after she fell in her opening match at the 2022 U.S. Open, she fell outside the top 80.
