WTA Strasbourg 2025 Entry List: Emma Raducanu’s Potential Opponents

Emma Raducanu is set to compete in the 2025 Internationaux de Strasbourg, a WTA 500 event held from May 18 to 24 on the clay courts of France. Currently ranked No. 49, Raducanu enters the tournament as the lowest-ranked player in the main draw, which could lead to challenging early-round matchups against higher-seeded opponents.

The tournament features a strong field, including top-seeded Jessica Pegula (World No. 4), Emma Navarro (No. 9), Paula Badosa (No. 10), and Elena Rybakina (No. 12). Other notable entrants are Elina Svitolina (No. 14), Daria Kasatkina (No. 15), Barbora Krejcikova (No. 16), and Ekaterina Alexandrova (No. 20).

Raducanu’s participation in Strasbourg follows a commendable performance at the Italian Open, where she reached the Round of 16 before falling to Coco Gauff. Her decision to play in Strasbourg reflects her commitment to gaining more experience on clay ahead of the French Open.

With a 28-player draw and the top four seeds receiving byes into the second round, Raducanu may face a seeded player in her opening match. A strong showing in Strasbourg could provide valuable ranking points and momentum as she prepares for Roland Garros.
