According to Travel News Asia, British tennis player Ms. Emma Raducanu, who was set to host a tennis clinic at Amilla Maldives Resort later in October, has pulled out of hosting the event.
Ms. Raducanu was initially scheduled to fly to the Maldives to host a tennis clinic at the Amilla Maldives property. According to Travel News Asia, the British born tennis player was going to stay at the private island in Baa atoll from 25th October until 01st November 2022.
Ms. Raducanu was expected to share her top tips and expert knowledge with guests, who wished to improve their game. She was also expected to attend a meet-and-greet event at the resort.
“I’m delighted to discover the Maldives for the first time and I would like to thank Amilla Maldives Resort and Residences for this opportunity,” Ms. Raducanu had said earlier, adding “I will share my experience with the guests and have an amazing time there.”
The 19-year old tennis star came to the lime light after becoming the first qualifier and the youngest British player to win a Grand Slam title at the US Open. Ms. Raducanu was subsequently awarded the WTA Newcomer of the Year. She is also the new face of luxury perfume brand Dior.
As a fervent supporter of the sport, Amilla Maldives regularly hosts tennis pros at the property throughout the year, and has a regular “resident pro” on hand to coach resort guests.
