Emma Raducanu will miss next week's Berlin Tennis Open as she continues to manage a back problem.

The 22-year-old has been struggling with the issue since competing in Strasbourg last month before the French Open and took an off-court medical timeout during her quarter-final loss to Qinwen Zheng at Queen's Club on Friday.

Speaking afterwards, Raducanu said: "It's been lingering for the last few weeks, and I have had back issues before. I think it's just a vulnerability of mine. I know I need to take good care of it.
