LONDON—Defying the limits of both medical science and good sense, British tennis prodigy Emma Raducanu confirmed Tuesday she “absolutely plans” to compete at Wimbledon this year, even if it means serving, volleying, and possibly executing a full victory lap from the comfort of a folding deck chair.

“Nothing’s going to stop me—not a leg injury, nor common sense, nor any logical understanding of the word ‘fit’,” Raducanu told reporters while demonstrating her backhand from a mobility scooter. “I’ve spoken with tournament officials about installing ramps and possibly a tennis ball delivery drone. I’m ready for anything.”

The All England Club, eager to ensure her attendance, reportedly considered modifying Centre Court to feature ergonomic seating. “Spectators may notice slight changes, like the addition of a recliner at the baseline and a towel rack within arm’s reach,” said tournament organizer Nigel Willoughby. “We’re even looking into remote-control racquets, just as a precaution.”

Raducanu’s coach, Fiona Plimpton, remains optimistic: “Emma’s training regimen now includes intense thumb workouts for scrolling through Netflix, and she’s nearly mastered the serve-and-shuffle. If needed, we’ll request a time-out for her to recharge her wheelchair.”

Fellow player Harriet Sycamore applauded Raducanu’s commitment: “Frankly, I just hope her crutches don’t get caught in the net again. That was awkward at Queens.”

Raducanu concluded, “If Andy Murray can play with a metal hip, I’m sure I can manage with one leg and a dream. Or worst case, a Segway. Wimbledon is about tradition, after all.”
