Former champion Emma Raducanu will miss the U.S. ​Open because of the stress ‌fracture in her leg that also forced her to pull out ​of Wimbledon, British media ​reported on Monday.

Raducanu, 23, is ⁠currently undergoing rehabilitation for ​the injury, with the U.S. ​Open’s main draw due to kick off in four weeks.

Reuters has reached ​out to the Briton’s ​representatives for comment.

Raducanu has struggled with injuries ‌and ⁠illness throughout this year, with a right foot injury she suffered last year affecting ​her early ​season ⁠preparations and campaign.

An illness in February forced ​her out again for ​more ⁠than two months, and in June she picked up the ⁠stress ​fracture that forced ​her out of Wimbledon.
