Historic Return: Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter Lead the Charge at Queen's Club Women's Tournament

Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter headline a historic women's tournament at Queen's Club, marking its return since 1973.

A Milestone in Women's Tennis

In June, the prestigious Queen's Club will host its first women's tennis tournament since 1973, featuring British stars Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter. This historic event, scheduled from June 7 to June 15, also includes notable players like Madison Keys, Naomi Osaka, and Daria Kasatkina.

A Dream Come True for Boulter

British number one Katie Boulter expressed her excitement about competing at such a legendary venue. 'Growing up, I watched the men's tournament every year, so being part of this historic event is truly an honor,' she shared. 'Winning here as a British player would be a dream come true.'

Raducanu's Comeback Trail

Emma Raducanu, who made a strong comeback from injury last year, is ready to make her mark. Her journey included reaching the semi-finals at Nottingham, quarter-finals at Eastbourne, and the last 16 at Wimbledon.

Organizers' Vision

The tournament's return was announced in May 2024 after discussions with the ATP about the impact on the subsequent men’s event. Tournament director Laura Robson highlighted the significance of this return: 'With three Grand Slam champions and the British number one, this promises to be a spectacular event.'

A New Chapter in Grass Court Tennis

This tournament not only celebrates the return of women's tennis to Queen's Club but also elevates the British grass court season to new heights. Fans can look forward to witnessing some of the best players in the world competing on this iconic stage.
