British tennis star Emma Raducanu was visibly upset as tournament officials in Dubai ejected a spectator showing "fixated behavior" toward her during Tuesday's second-round match against Karolina Muchova.

A male spectator who exhibited “fixated behavior” toward Emma Raducanu during her match against Karolina Muchová in Dubai has been given a restraining order, Dubai authorities confirmed Thursday.

Raducanu had reportedly encountered the man multiple times and received a letter from him in person on Monday.

Emma Raducanu was approached in a public space "by a man who exhibited fixated behavior" and the same man was spotted in the first few rows during her match, the WTA said.

Emma Raducanu said she will “be okay” after a “fixated” spectator was ejected from her match at the Dubai Tennis Championships earlier this week.

The Women's Tennis Association says concern over a man who’d exhibited fixated behavior caused Emma Raducanu to approach the chair umpire in tears and take an unscheduled break in her second-round match at the Dubai Championships.
