Emma Raducanu made it to the third stage in three out of four Grand Slam events in the current campaign.
Emma Raducanu from Great Britain will not compete in her final two events in 2025 because of a health issue she has been fighting in recent days.
At 22 years old was due to play in Tokyo and Hong Kong but opted to return home to recover ahead of launching next year's training.
Her upcoming training will involve trainer Francisco Roig, as they have agreed to work together again next season.
The tennis professional required blood pressure checks during her first-round match against Ann Li in the Wuhan tournament and withdrew when behind 6-1 4-1 on a very muggy occasion.
Another medical visit was necessary a visit from the doctor at the Ningbo Open this week, where she lost in three sets to Zhu Lin, a Chinese wildcard in round one.
She was also playing noticeably restricted in the third set in the match with Zhu due to a lower back issue that has affected her during parts of the season.
Those results followed a positive campaign, in which Raducanu rose into the international top 30 after a long gap in more than three years, ended with three successive defeats.
She held three match points before losing to American player Jessica Pegula in the third round in Beijing last month.
The player achieved twenty-eight matches in the current season and advanced to the semis in the Washington tournament, but her standout performance was at the Miami event in March.
The British number one reached the quarter-finals of the WTA 1000 event, overcoming Emma Navarro, the eighth seed en route then falling in three sets to the world number four Pegula.
She worked with Mark Petchey as coach from the Miami event through Wimbledon, with Roig taking over for the US Open.
The initial agreement with the ex-coach of Rafael Nadal was through the season's conclusion but the collaboration persists, with a training session scheduled late this year.
Raducanu told that her three-day trial with Roig after Wimbledon was like a "secret mission" as the meeting was kept under wraps.
She came very close to defeating top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka at their first tournament together in Cincinnati during August.
Roig was also with Raducanu in the New York tournament, where she advanced to round three prior to losing to Rybakina, champion at Wimbledon in 2022.
