Raducanu Back to Winning Ways on London Grass
9 Jun
Summary
- Raducanu secures first grass win with a 6-0 6-3 scoreline.
- She recently rehired coach Andrew Richardson for support.
- The British number one's last win was in March.
Emma Raducanu commenced her grass court season at the HSBC Championships in London, securing a decisive 6-0 6-3 win against qualifier Anna Blinkova. This victory represents her first since March, following a disappointing first-round exit at the French Open.
Raducanu has notably rehired Andrew Richardson, the coach who guided her to her remarkable US Open victory in 2021. This reunion comes after a period of coaching changes and a post-viral illness that impacted her performance and led to a significant break from the tour.
Despite a tougher second set where Blinkova broke Raducanu's serve twice, the British number one ultimately closed out the match in under an hour. Raducanu's performance at Queen's Club presented a stark contrast to her recent struggles on clay.
