The British No. 1 missed a scheduled practice session days before her home Grand Slam, with reports she had been seen in a protective boot.

A run to the final at Queen's has lifted hopes around the British No 1, but how far Emma Raducanu can go at SW19 will depend on the draw, her fitness and the weight of home expectation.

Croatia's Donna Vekic blitzed the opening set and survived a second-set fightback to deny home favourite Emma Raducanu on the lawns of west London, with the men's event now under way at a depleted Queen's.

Emma Raducanu produced a commanding straight-sets win over Iva Jovic to reach the Queen's Club final without dropping a set, becoming the first British woman to make the showpiece since Winnie Shaw 56 years ago.
