Andy Roddick recently shared his opinion on the claims made by the media about Emma Raducanu’s most recent loss at the 2024 Qatar Open.

Raducanu was last in action at the WTA 1000 in Doha, where she was granted a wild card entry. The Brit, who suffered a crushing 6-0, 7-6 (8) defeat to Anhelina Kalinina in the opener, competed at the event just days after her second-round loss to Ons Jabeur in Abu Dhabi.

During the period between the two tournaments, Emma Raducanu also made a quick trip to Dubai to attend a star-studded party at a luxury hotel. British tennis journalist Stuart Fraser, among others, questioned the 21-year-old’s priorities in an article titled, “Emma Raducanu flops 48 hours after event with Naomi Campbell.” It was seemingly insinuated that partying was to blame for her loss in Doha.

Andy Roddick recently weighed in on the claims and touched upon Raducanu’s wild card entry into the Qatar Open.
