Emma Raducanu’s outfit completely covered in clay as Brit seemingly falls during practice at Madrid Open
Emma Raducanu Spotted Covered in Clay After Apparent Fall During Madrid Open Practice
British tennis star Emma Raducanu drew attention during a practice session at the Madrid Open after she was seen with her entire outfit covered in clay—suggesting a possible tumble on the court.
Images of Raducanu, shared from the practice courts, showed the 2021 US Open champion in good spirits despite the incident. While no footage of the fall has emerged, the clay-covered clothing certainly hints at a slip during her preparation for the tournament.
Raducanu has been riding a wave of momentum lately, especially after her strong showing at the 2025 Miami Open, which has raised expectations for the rest of her season.
A tennis analyst recently shared insights into her prospects:
“If she stays healthy and plays this well, then she’ll be seeded at Roland Garros. I think she’ll move up the rankings well enough into the top 30. The biggest question mark is her health.”
They also commented on her coaching situation:
“Hopefully, she can sort out her coaching situation because she’s been in a state of flux. I think she needs to commit to somebody and stay with them for a little bit—see how that works.”
With the clay season in full swing and Roland Garros just around the corner, fans will be watching closely to see if Raducanu can build on her recent form and overcome the challenges that have previously hindered her progress.
