Emma Raducanu isn’t compromising on her commitments as a brand ambassador despite undergoing surgeries just days ago.

Raducanu, who is the fashion and beauty global ambassador for French luxury fashion house Dior, was recently spotted attending the brand’s Dior Cruise 2024 fashion event in Mexico City.

The tennis sensation graced the red carpet in a stunning black ensemble from Dior’s India-inspired Fall 2023 collection. She also noticeably wore a cast on her hand – a testament to her recent surgeries.

"Just saw the show here in Mexico City, and it was stunning and it was a really nice thing to be a part of," the 20-year-old said.

Emma Raducanu was also captured in frame with numerous personalities associated with Dior, during their afterparty.

Raducanu has been a regular at the French luxury brand’s fashion events, ever since accepting the role as their ambassador in October 2021 – just days after her historic US Open title win.

The Grand Slam winner has frequently opted for exquisite pieces by Dior during her numerous glamorous outings. The sporting icon has also been a part of Dior’s fashion and beauty campaigns, and recently featured in the brand’s skincare campaign “Time To Play.”

Emma Raducanu recently underwent three surgeries - on her hands and her ankle. She has thus been out of action on the tennis courts for the past few weeks.

The player stated that she had been dealing with injuries for a while, but delayed the procedures as she hoped that the issues will resolve without drastic measures.

"It is safe to say the last 10 months have been difficult as I dealt with a recurring injury to a bone of both hands. I tried my best to manage the pain and play through it for most of this year and end of last year by reducing practice load dramatically, unfortunately it’s not enough," she said.

The 20-year-old was last seen in a contest with Jelena Ostapenko in the first round of the Stuttgart Open on Tuesday, April 18.

On May 15, the former US Open champion revealed that she had successfully completed her third and final surgery and soon afterwards, gave an update on her rehab journey.

Emma Raducanu noted that she will be taking a few months off to heal, and as a result, will be miss the summer events, which include the French Open and Wimbledon.

"I'm disappointed to share that I will be out for the next few months," the former World No. 10 revealed, adding, "It pains me that I will miss the summer events and I tried to down play the issues so I thank all my fans who continued to support me when you did not know the facts."
