Emma Raducanu reacts to Paula Badosa’s delightful snaps from Madrid Open ahead of injury comeback

As Paula Badosa shared a series of cheerful snaps from the Madrid Open on Instagram, fellow tennis star Emma Raducanu couldn’t help but react. The Brit dropped a simple yet sweet “😍” emoji in the comments, showing support for her friend ahead of her own return from injury.

The interaction highlighted the bond between the two players, something Badosa spoke about in a recent interview. Opening up about her friendship with Raducanu, Badosa reflected on their shared experiences dealing with pressure and public scrutiny.

“We went for lunch, for breakfast. We spoke a lot about how tough it is to deal with all these expectations—especially in her case,” Badosa shared. “I had a bit of the same in my career. Anything you do gets crazy attention on social media. For her, it’s even more intense.”

Despite the pressure, Badosa believes Raducanu is handling things well. “She’s found a balance. It’s never going to be easy, but I think she’s learning to embrace the beautiful side of it. That’s something I’m working on too,” she added. “It’s nice that we can share our experiences.”

With both stars navigating their paths back from challenges—on and off the court—fans are excited to see what lies ahead for this dynamic duo.
