Emma Raducanu has hit out at the gender pay gap in tennis and claimed female stars are underappreciated.

Raducanu, 21, dramatically burst onto the scene as one of British tennis’ brightest prospects when she won the US Open in remarkable fashion at the age of 18 in 2021.

However, she has struggled with injuries over the past two years, but has gradually been stepping up her comeback in recent months and is set to take part in qualifying for the French Open next week.

And, ahead of the iconic event at Roland-Garros, Raducanu, who narrowly missed out on automatic qualification, insisted that women don’t get the credit they deserve and expressed her thoughts on the differences to the men’s game.
