Why are so many British players injured?
Several top British tennis players, including Emma Raducanu, Sonay Kartal, and Jack Draper, have been sidelined by injuries or illness during the 2026 clay-court season, straining the country’s top 100 resources. The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) identifies high match loads—tennis players log far more competitive hours than footballers—as a key injury driver, while players cite financial pressures and the 11-month season length as barriers to resting; WTA Tour Architecture Council chair Jessica Pegula advocates for penalty-free withdrawals from top events to reduce forced play while injured, and the LTA has refreshed its physiotherapy staff to support athletes.
