Raducanu, 20, last played in the first round of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart where was knocked out by Jelena Ostapenko.

The former 2021 US Open women’s singles champ currently stands at 194 in the WTA ranking.

The tennis superstar had surgery in May which she announced on social media.

Since then she has been on the road to recovery and was spotted last month back at training.

While working on her comeback the youngster has taken time out to travel and recently visited her mother’s home country China.

On her visit to Shenyang, she opened up about her love for Mahjong with her grandmother.

She told Porsche: “I recently learned Mahjong and feel most at home and my true self when I’m around the kitchen table at my grandma or aunt’s place in Shenyang playing with family.”

The Chinese game Mahjong is usually played with four people, with the tiles having to be arranged in specific orders to create a winning hand.
