Emma Raducanu has revealed she is withdrawing from Wimbledon less than a day before the tournament starts.
The British No.1 will miss her home Grand Slam through injury for the second time in four years having suffered a stress fracture in her shin this time.
Raducanu has not played a competitive match since her agonising defeat to Donna Vekic in the final at Queens on June 14.
The Brit only returned to the tour in May following a two-month absence due to illness, which caused several tournament withdrawals.
She pulled out of the Nottingham Open 24 hours after her runners-up finish at Queens, with a change of schedule cited as the reason.
Raducanu, who was due to be in first-round action against Antonia Ruzic at 1pm on Monday, sat out Wimbledon practice on Thursday.
The 23-year-old then cut short a practice set with Anna Kalinskaya on Court 3 at 4-0 down on Saturday to ignite fears over her fitness.
Raducanu, who has been seen sporting heavy strapping across her leg and wearing an orthopaedic boot, has now confirmed the worst.
Raducanu out of 2026 Wimbledon
In a statement, the No. 30 seed said on her Instagram story: “Hi everyone, I can’t believe I’m saying this, but sadly I’ve had to withdraw from this year’s Wimbledon.
“I’ve done everything possible to try to get to the start line tomorrow but after a final scan tonight, the niggle I’ve been managing has developed into a stress fracture.
“And I’ve been medically advised to stop pushing through.
“Playing at Wimbledon, in front of a home crowd, means everything to me, so this is really difficult to process.
“I want to thank you all for your support and encouragement. Especially at a time like this, it is invaluable. I look forward to seeing you when I’m back.”
Emma Raducanu record at Wimbledon
This is now the second time that Raducanu has been unable to play a single match at the All England Club since her 2021 breakthrough.
That epic run to the fourth-round – which remains her joint-best Wimbledon performance – came months before her Flushing Meadows heroics that culminated in her one Grand Slam title.
Raducanu forfeited her place at SW19 in 2023 after undergoing double wrist surgery that ruled her out for months.
Her Wimbledon comeback in 2024 was then marred by her controversial decision to withdraw from a mixed doubles team-up with Andy Murray in what was the Scot’s last Wimbledon – and final grand slam – before he retired.
Raducanu, who cited wrist soreness as the reason behind her decision to pull out, then crashed out of the singles draw 24 hours later.
The 2021 US Open champion impressed at Wimbledon last summer, but lost to current world No.1, Aryna Sabalenka, in the third round.
Raducanu did not take a wildcard into the Eastbourne Open in favour of a practice week, but now her Wimbledon bid has ended.
