What’s scarier than a straight-sets loss? A fixated fan! Emma Raducanu tears up in Dubai, but we’re not letting the stalkers steal the serve!

Emma Raducanu, the much-loved British tennis star, recently faced an unsettling situation during her match at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships. In the midst of a tense game against Karolina Muchova, a male spectator exhibiting what the WTA termed 'fixated behavior' caused disturbance not only for Raducanu but for fans and players alike. While attempting to focus on her game, Emma was clearly shaken by the presence of the individual, who was later ejected from the venue after his unsettling antics raised alarm. The incident left the young athlete visibly emotional as she struggled to concentrate while also recalling her past experiences with unwanted attention from a former stalker who had been handed a five-year restraining order in 2022.
