MARION BARTOLI has relived her own Wimbledon harassment hell in the wake of Emma Raducanu’s terrifying episode with a stalker.
As she made the singles final on SW19 grounds for the first time in 2007 – she was beaten in the Centre Court final by Venus Williams – it was amid a backdrop of being followed and targeted by a fixated individual.
It comes as Raducanu, 22, burst into tears on court in Dubai after feeling terrified by the presence of a guy in the stands who had approached her the day before.
And they found a way to get his identity and get rid of him and put his picture on all the entrances of the All England Club.
The stalker was arrested by Dubai Police and though Raducanu dropped all charges, he has since signed a restraining order to keep away from her in the future.
