Emma Raducanu stalker: British player is not hiding any more


In June, Raducanu told BBC Sport she had been feeling more safe at tournaments, but was still wary whenever she went out.

She is training with coach Francisco Roig in Barcelona this month, but has spent much of the past few weeks commuting to London by train from her parents’ house in Bromley.

While being part of rush hour travel is an experience in itself, Raducanu says she is becoming more comfortable being recognised in public.

“In rush hour, people are so locked in to their world. They’re not really paying attention and probably not expecting to see me either,” she said.

“I have my hood up, or whatever, but they’re just so focused and absorbed in their own world.

“It’s all so crazy. It’s like everyone’s on a mission. You have to get the elbows out, just to get through.

“If people recognise me, if people see me, and they want to come up to me, then that’s great, but I don’t necessarily feel like I’m hiding from anything any more.”
