But sadly for Raducanu - who battled a back injury at the start of 2025 - she didn't manage to take advantage of a favorable draw as her run in the Asian event lasted only match after world No. 101 Cristina Bucsa upset her 5-7 7-5 7-5.

Emma Raducanu's campaign at the inaugural Singapore Tennis Open ended earlier than expected, as the British star fell to Spain’s Cristina Busca in a gripping first-round clash.

Emma Raducanu suffered a third straight defeat in the opening round of the Abu Dhabi Open. The 22-year-old was beaten 6-3 6-4 by former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova to add to her losses to Iga Swiatek in the third round of the Australian Open and to Cristina Bucsa in Singapore last week.
