Emma Raducanu's stalker receives restraining order, charges dropped

Emma Raducanu faced a distressing incident during the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships when a man exhibiting 'fixated behaviour' approached her, handed her a letter, and took her photograph. After notifying the authorities, the Dubai police detained the individual, who has since received a restraining order and is banned from future tournaments. Despite the distress caused, Raducanu chose to drop formal charges against the man. During her match against Karolina Muchova, Raducanu was visibly shaken and sought refuge behind the umpire's chair after spotting the man in the stands. The Women's Tennis Association (WTA) and Dubai tournament organizers have expressed their commitment to player safety. Raducanu thanked her supporters and expressed pride in her performance despite the challenging circumstances.
