Emma Raducanu made it to the third stage in three of the four major tournaments this year.
Britain's Emma Raducanu will not compete in her remaining competitions in 2025 due to a health issue that has affected her over the past 10 days.
Raducanu, aged 22 was due to play in events in Asia but has decided to fly home to recover ahead of launching next year's training.
Those preparations will involve her coach Francisco Roig, as both individuals will keep partnering again next season.
Raducanu required blood pressure checks during her first-round match against Ann Li in Wuhan and stopped playing when losing 6-1 4-1 on a very muggy occasion.
Another medical visit was necessary medical attention at the recent Ningbo Open, where she was defeated in three sets to Zhu Lin, a Chinese wildcard in round one.
Raducanu was also moving noticeably restricted in the final set against Zhu because of a lower back issue that has been a concern on several occasions in 2025.
Such performances followed a positive campaign, in which Raducanu rose into the top 30 globally for the first time for the first time since 2022, concluded with three straight losses.
The athlete was close to victory with three match points then was defeated by American player Jessica Pegula in the third round in last month's Beijing event.
She secured twenty-eight matches this year and made it to the semi-final round in Washington, but the highlight of her season was at the Miami Open in March.
The British number one made the last eight of a premier WTA event, beating eighth seed Emma Navarro during the tournament then falling in a three-set match to Pegula, ranked fourth.
She worked with Mark Petchey as coach from Miami until Wimbledon, with Francisco Roig stepping in for the US Open.
The original arrangement with Rafael Nadal's former coach was for the remainder of the year but the partnership will continue, with a training session scheduled in the coming months.
She mentioned that her three-day trial with Roig after Wimbledon was like a "covert operation" as they aimed to maintain secrecy.
The player was close to overcoming Sabalenka, the world number one at their initial event as a team in August's Cincinnati tournament.
The coach also accompanied Raducanu in New York, where she made the third stage then falling to 2022 Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina.
