Katie Boulter and Emma Raducanu are preparing to commence their grass-court campaigns at the Nottingham Open, and fortunately, the BBC will be airing the live coverage of all the action. As the defending champion, Boulter aims to uphold her title after achieving her first WTA Tour triumph at the previous year’s tournament. Conversely, Raducanu will be marking her return since April, having chosen to skip the French Open in order to concentrate on Wimbledon.
Alongside these accomplished players, their compatriots Cameron Norrie and Dan Evans will be contending in the men’s Challenger event, coinciding with the women’s matches. The Nottingham Open is scheduled to occur from 10th to 16th June, with the matches on the main court being broadcasted live on the BBC Sport website and app.
In terms of match-ups, Boulter is slated to commence her title defence against her compatriot Harriet Dart, whereas Raducanu will initiate her campaign against a qualifier that is yet to be determined.
