MATTHEW LAMBERT AT FLUSHING MEADOWS: Emma Raducanu tearfully admitted she will look to 'manage my schedule differently' after she was beaten in the first round of the US Open.
Emma Raducanu tearfully admitted she will look to 'manage my schedule differently' after she was beaten in the first round of the US Open by Sofia Kenin .
'I would have preferred to probably play a little bit more before coming into the US Open,' admitted Raducanu after the defeat. Her opponent Kenin, 25, won the Australian Open in 2020 but a variety of issues have seen her ranking outside the top 50.Raducanu settled down in the second set and played with more patience. She carried on an almost constant dialogue with coach Nick Cavaday between points as they sought to find a way through the Kenin defences.
‘Walking past my photo every day, walking past my name on the trophy every day. I think that is such an epic achievement.’
