Wow! Fantastic tennis. My first time ever seeing Perta play and it was very impressive. Congrats on the win.
Good match that could have gone either way. Radacanu's WTA Ranking is high based purely on her U.S. open success. In reality she is probably a top 50 player which in itself is extraordinary since she came out of nowhere 9 months ago. Nothing wrong with her game or her potential. Just needs experience and the improvements that come with practice and hard work
So true in every respect,emma getting good match practice,she wiĺl shine
@@harrydocwalkerharrydocwalk5998 She already has US open 2021. Let's hope the shine doesn't continue to fade.
@@harrydocwalkerharrydocwalk5998 But she has to change her coach: I don't see her happy on the court and she quickly gets down in the face of an adverse situation in a game. Something is wrong with Emma right now.
lol nothing special on her. she is just overhyped. i think she will slide down to 150 rank this year. WTA ranking really sucks I will see her as 100 player throughout her career. Thats why I saw from her gameplay she doesnt look like a 13th player or even a 50 player.
That US open must be the luckiest draw. She should treasure it coz I don't see her winnning again in 10-15 years.
@@BertzVarquez her form since US Open has been very ordinary at best. But anyone that comes through qualifying and wins a Major is going to be hyped up, not her fault. She will enjoy the sponsorship that come with that sought of publicity and that will keep food on the table.
Emma gave it all she had and did well, great fight champ, this is a huge improvement from where things have been 👏
Raducanu played some incredible shots! I’m sure it hurts to loads a match but I think she should also be proud of the way she played. It was a thriller of a match.
Great shot variation from Petra in this one. Excellent quality match between these two and top-tier all-arounder play. Emma's service game has really benefitted her recently.
Emma played well but happy for beautiful Croatian Girl! So humble and peaceful through the game never showed any worry or panic till she won it! Go Martic.
Congratulation Petra! Well deserved to win!
petra so beautiful and talented i love seeing her winning again. ❤🤗🇭🇷🎾
Same.
She lost
Rising star..
Great rallying by both in this one, lots of looks/variety in the shot-making dept. and a good deal of at-net action on display. Well played 👏
nothing special from radu she js overhyped and overrated with his us win. draw is lucky on her. 150 rank at the end of this year. wanna bet
@@BertzVarquez FYI, her points from the US Open remain valid for 2 years, so she is very unlikely to drop significantly. case in point, look at Andreescu. she played very little after her win at the US open. even after a year with no playing she was still ranked top 20.
It was a very beautiful match, with some very cool shots ! 👏👏👏
Great match for Petra I root for her , because she's so naiv, sweet , talented yet often unlucky I'm so happy she won I think that Francesca Schiavone who had coached her recently will be happy too
I really like Petra, too. Such a strong all around game, beautiful athleticism and classic tennis. Some of her net approached and volleys were divine today!
I agree with you. Never had a chance to watch more of her matches, but she is really talented...
I did not know of the Schiavone connection, a player I always enjoy watching. Petra has an incredible forehand that should be controlling most of her points.
Taducanu, depois de vencer o último US Open, teve uma visível queda de rendimento em quadra... não sei o que houve com ela. Sem dúvida que ela tem um grande potencial, mas não está conseguindo avançar nos torneios. Congrats, Petra Martic. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great shot variation from Raducanu in this one. Excellent quality match between these two and top-tier all-arounder play. Petra's service game has really benefitted her recently.
It would have been an upset had she beat Martic.
@@MH-vw9ni no, it wouldn't have. Emma is ranked 13th in the world and Petra is ranked 86th. Emma recently one a GS as well. Don't want to get technical with you, but those are all fact.
@@gseric4721 On paper she may be 13th but not talent wise.
@@MH-vw9ni yeah man its mathematically impossible for it to be a upset if Martic loss atm
@@gseric4721 lol emma is world number 13 because others lost their points recently in AO like osaka and kenin, few of them not playing because of injuries, would you say the same thing if osaka who is ranked 70-80 now defeats some player with rank 30-40? Will that be an upset too lol
Big news for British tennis, Harriet Dart wins into the top 100 into the 4th round will play Keys, big energy difference between Harriet and Emma at Indian Wells
Incredible. In a match won by Petra, we saw just 2 or 3 points won by her, and the best points won by Emma. It's no fair, or i did not understand what is the purpose of this post. Is to show how nice Emma plays ? Petra deserved something more
She got beat. Period. Congrats Petra...good luck the rest of the tournament.
You sound like a HATER, are you realated to the Stalker by any chance ???? She is only 18 lost to an almost 30 40yr old woman c'mon wat's ur problem??? and that was very close.
@@jessicabradley6657 She's 19. She cannot be forever 18 !
Losing became a normal for Raducanu. If she was from another country, nobody would mention her, but no she is British super star and everybody fancies her.
So very true I am afraid.
It has nothing to do with her country. She is the only player in the history of tennis - male or female - who won a grand slam as a qualifier.
@@user-gu1un7pb7k You are absolutely correct but it must be put into perspective. She beat everyone she played at the US Open but none were top level (10) players. It was a bizarre tournament. How often does any tennis tournament, especially a Grand Slam, feature the 70th ranked player playing the 150th ranked player in the final? Emma is a good player and has a great upside but her success at the US Open requires a footnote.
@@user-gu1un7pb7k lots of people make history. Nadal won number 21 yet did not gain 2 million followers over two weeks. british media is desperatly pushing her. it took Osaka 4 majors to have 2 million followers on instagram
@@deusexmachina9776 Nadal already has millions of followers why on earth would he suddenly gain 2 million more? British media desperately pushing her for what? They didn't force 2 million people to follow her. And since when does stupid shit like social media followers mean anything anyway?
Great match from both players. Petra is more experienced, her experiences were helping her very well in this match, congrats to her.
Emma has the potential to be on the top, she just needs more experience and improvement. We can see her improvement in this match since her AO run.
I love Emma dearly but Petra totally deserves this win! Some great points!
One hit wonder strikes again hehe but she young
@@wildchild8685 what has she done to make you love her dearly.
Emma looked good again in this match, it's a shame she wasn't able to serve it out but this match was promising. That being said, congrats to Petra
She was hurt
@@nicolasmts3264 classic excuse!
@@bryanmartin5901 what makes you think I'm rooting for her lmao I was just pointing that out to Simon, she was good first set but from 2th nope she had some back issue or something and struggled, Martic almost choked having this advantage cause she broke Raducanu and got broken again
@@nicolasmts3264 what makes you think that I think you’re rooting for her? Just because her play decreases doesn’t automatically mean injury. She had a chance to serve for the match; would you have said injury then, if she did successfully serve it out? It doesn’t make sense. She never once asked for the trainer or medical timeout. There was no injury.
@@bryanmartin5901 well because she didn't want MTO, did you watch the match?
this was a great match!! Congrats to Martic.
Congrats Petra. She fought for it. Emma matches vs Caroline Garcia and Petra has shown that her level of serve is key to her game. Good luck to her to improve her game.
i agree, petra's service has improved most definitely and she has a beautiful kick serve. i'll post a video where petra hit like 13 aces in a match earlier this year later 😁👍
This video is showing more of Raducanu’s instead of Martic’s winning shots.
May be it was produced by a British. Brits are superb in propaganda. My guess is all the people who commented in this match are either British or in search of a British superstar. Instead of congratulating Petra, they talk about the looser, Emma. I have never seen as many comments about a looser of a match as this one.
Marketing
@@mr.g2195 this is the official WTA site. Your anti-British post is laughable. Glad you are jealous of the UK 😀
Raducanu did not play horrible. It was Petra's fighting spirit that helped her win in the end. Well deserved.
Yes! winning the TB against a big hitting relentless Petra was amazing for emma🥰🥰🥰!! facing a tennis veteran at 19y old is a tough challenge and it showed how tough it is facing Petra in top form! emma gave it everything but perta's level didn’t drop!. It will be a great lesson for emma Facing tennis fight players not letting their level drop!
@@jamiewhitney4724 How come Petra's top form died so easily, just in a few days?
This is an All around match! 🔥💫 Both players played really well. Congrats Petra Martic, you deserve to win. Experience and maturity shines.
For sure Emma will take all the positives in this match. The more INPUT she gets every match the better, she can correct her mistakes. She will get there for sure! Always remember " Losing is the best teacher of every champion." All gains 💫
So close... oh so close... what a shame...
On the plus side, we saw flashes of brilliance from the US Champion. She's getting better. It's great to see...
Fair play to Martic... she earned this one...
Trying to figure out why most of the points being shown on the highlights are the points won by Raducanu, even though she lost the match. Had to watch another highlight of this match just to see the points won by Martic when Emma was serving for the match. Bias much?? 🤔
WTA's highlights are always on the super hyped youngsters and media darlings, although in reality some of these players are nothing more than a one hit wonder. Kournikova, Bouchard, there are bound to be a few in every generations. As viewers, all we can say is "enjoy it while it lasts".
@@briangmoh5261 yes, 100% wta hasn't uploaded Osaka vs Kudermetova match highlights yet... they always hype these cuties and social media girls, so that they can get some views.. SMH
They did the same with the Gauff vs Halep match. Halep won but more highlights of Gauffs winning points. Made me wonder if Halep won on lots of simple points?
Good for Petra 😄 nice to see her win
Emma is an artist; She sometimes makes inexplicable shots! She is still young and she had a more experienced and more enduring opponent on the long journeys. Well done Petra.
I watched the entire match live. Lots of good plays from both sides. It was a very close match that could have gone either way but I think had Emma been slightly more fit, she would have won it based on her superior shot making. Petra was fitter and more experienced.
Maybe a few more months in the gym and a few more pro matches, and she'll increase her level a bit more.
It also seemed to me that Radacanu was not hitting as hard against Martic as she was against Garcia. Radacanu does better when she goes for her shots and keeps the rallies short. At this stage in her career long rallies are not her forte.
@@jackwachtel-scott8000 I think long matches too can be tough on young players. Petra has had more time to build herself up; she's around 30 years old, right?
@@bigrobsydney I believe she is. The other thing that may have affected Radacanu is the temperature in Indian Wells which at this time of year is in the mid 80's. Perhaps she wasn't well enough prepared for that.
Good game Patra fighting to stay and win
Kudos to Martic!!!!!!!
Keep learning and growing Emma.
Martic's effortless play and confidence can take her all the way, if she can sustain it!
She's going nowhere....
Too old and too ugly
@@Azv8217 raducandu fan spotted
Can't help but agree with people like Federer who warn that phenomenal wins like Raducanu's US-Open and the fame and attention it brings at such a young age come with lots of offers and attention that serve as distractions young players may not know how to handle or balance.
Or maybe she just sucks and is the most over-hyped player in history? 😂
Don't think this loss has anything to do with 'offers' or 'attention'. She played well but beaten by a more matured and fitter player. She is still finding her own feet in terms of problem solve her way out of trouble. A lot of people who don't play tennis just expect her to never stop winning which is laughable.
She will learn a lot of this match, good lesson to improvement his tactical and Stamina
her fans are making it even harder for her by saying she’s injured or she’s inexperienced for all her previous losses after the USO. Stop expecting her to win all the time. Nothing wrong about defeat in a sport. Just applaud their effort rather than excuses for losses. No need to put more expectations on her when she prob already sensed it in herself.
@@rbutthamilton That's not the point. You'd expect her to live up to her rankings atleast, she's been beaten way too many times by lower ranked opponents which is not a good sign
Both have evolved in their games and skills. March onwards, ladies!
Emma is still young...many years / many success ahead of her.
Emma, you played a great match, primarily in important points. You showed a great variety of shots in your game strategy. Unfortunately, the match was too closed and Petra or you deserved and could win it. But, you are back!!
Good match Emma..Keep playing.
Emma hasta la final👏bendiciones de salud y grandes éxitos🙏😘❤🇩🇴
The best match of torneo
Emma play Great match today even she lose she still new, today she prove she is fighter with experience WTA player like Martic even Osaka still lose, i am always support her Keep training good luck for your next tournament.
Great match !!
So many good players now on WTA tour anyone can win on a given day. The only one that dominates is Barty and she's not here.
Emma needs a mental wellness and game strategy coach. She wasn't able to exploit Petra's obviously weak backhand. Petra on the other hand, was mature and held her nerve very well.
Petra’s weakness is obviously her forehand the shot she missed more on today
WTA should turn comments off. You guys are are so mean at times toward the players. I understand that you all want your favourite player to win but your expectations are just too high.
Why? Because players can't take critism? Like Osaka today. 😂
I agree, let's be sports fans with class, leave the cheap shots in the alley.
Emma Raducanu will learn a lot of this match, good lesson to improvement his tactical and Stamina. GG Martic
Radacanu will be outside the top 50 by October. Maybe even the top 100. She can hit good shots but she can't win matches, and that's what it's ultimately all about. All players go through a period when they get found out, and usually that's before they win a major. Emma happened to win a slam first with some good play and a large slice of luck. The rest of her career will be like any normal player who has to fight their way up the ladder through all the setbacks and learn to live with their scars.
Damn. Ouch.
However... I concur.
@@miguelcunanan9855 she has talent though. But she is going to have to forget she ever won that major and pretend she is ranked 150...or wait until she is ranked 150.
this is what happened when you poured all your luck in one event. losing after losing after losing. the good thing is we don't see anymore those smirk this girl gave everytime she scored in her opponents.
Go Martic 👍
Emma has many many things to learn and build up, keep spirits!
good match performed by both players
We feel sorry better luck nxt time keep going Emma ur still the best for us. God bless 🎾🙏
So no one is going to talk about Amanda Anisimova straight up quitting last night huh? I see there are no highlights for Fernandez vs. Anisimova. LOL!
are you looking for drama or tennis match? Just curious.
Osaka vs Kudermetova either WTA knows what their doing both matches had some “debatable drama” and ig they want to avoid it
Excellent match. The women game is deep with
Players. Ball striking was great.
Keep going Emma! Never give up!
Regarding the form of Raducanu a few weeks ago, this is still a good performance.
She is making progress and there were some flashes like US Open 2021. Some say she won't ever win a slam again, but she has it in her. Just give her some time to recover and rebuild.
good for you petra finding your winning stride once again :)
while emma's flip flopping "hardcore fans" those same fans who did not even know who emma raducanu was around this time last year, continue to harshly criticize her after losing every match since the us open
Ik lol she shouldn’t be expected to be winning
@Sean she got lucky at the us open. She didnt beat a top 10 player on the road to winning a slam. She had never won a wta match. And yet people are talking as if she’s the favourite for every match she plays. She’s won one tournament, she has less than a year of experience in the top 200. She shouldn’t be expected to win. She’s playing extremely well, better than can be expected. But people jump on the band waggon and act as if she’s capable of consistently beating the top players in the world, when she is just not
@Sean exactly. “Serial” winners. How is she comparable to a “serial winner”? She has won one wta level tournament (the US open)
@Sean I said she HAD never beaten a top 10 player when she had won a grand slam
@Sean yes. It’s not her problem. I’m not criticising her in anyway at all. I’m saying she should not be expected to win
Where are yesterday's matches? Leylah Fernandez vs Anisimova and Osaka vs Kudermetova? They had a little drama but that's not enough to not post the highlights. Pretty lame not to post them.
Because for some reason the wta is trying so hard to make raducanu “happen.” No matter how much she sucks and loses lol it’s annoying as fuck
@@MashaRistova You’re a saddo. What’s their matches go to do with Emma?
@@MashaRistova you are a lost case.
@@MashaRistova You’re pathetic. Seek help
Yeah, for some reason all the night matches from yesterday don't have any highlights.
EMMA RADUCANU MY FAVORITE💪💪👍👍
Cảm giác như mk đang đc nghe 1 bản nhạc chữa lành vậy đó. Giọng hát của đp rất đặc biệt, nhẹ nhàng tình cảm. Xem video thôi đã hay ntn r, ghen tị vs ekip qaa nghe hát live chắc hay gấp 💯lần lunn
Raducanu's skirt most beautiful thing in tennis.
i would love to see emma play a tournament fully fit for the first time since winning the us open-all the shots are there and her backhand is world class...just a shame her fitness and physical strength in not quite there yet.
She'll get there.
Great match from two classy players.
It sucks that Emma’s out but this match will only help her in the long run and improve her resilience in tight games like these
How many match needs she to lost?
Keep hoping.
She got lots of help, aka lost matches, since the US Open. Everything is possible.
Emma is one GS wonder. She'll never amount to anything big.
Good battle.
Awesome
She has a great career ahead of her as long as she stays healthy and continues to improve. She will also make $millions in endorsements based on her success and beauty and poise!
Good tough match emma,you are improving all the time,liked your tactical game,soon success!
Would really like to see Emma do kick serves for second serve
This is what you want to watch , great variety of brilliant shots from both players. Congrats to Martic, experience won this time but what a great battle for Raducanu with time and more experience especially 3 setters match it’s all positive games and fit, she will get there. Really enjoyed the match. 🙌🥰
Hard luck Emma, some very great angled shots. Come back stronger.
The real winner here is whomever strung Martic's racquet, because she's getting an insane amount of controlled pop off that weird forehand. Great match. Much higher level than Round 3. Emma is hitting great. She just caught the wrong one on the wrong day.
Martic hardly missed a ball all match. I was just expecting her to lose control of her forehand in the 3rd but she hung on in there.
@@NoOne-le2jv Yeah, she was digging everything out. Just one of those days.
are there any highlights of Martic winning points? I don't even know this player but holy s#&%!, some balance in presentation of highlights would be good
it suggests there were a lot of "unforced errors" from emma
This was a great loss for Emma. She played well but I do believe that success comes from failure. She will learn from this. Hopefully the press will lay off and let her move ahead without ridiculous expectations.
Radu Cantu - the one one hit wonder. The luster is wearing thin now and soon she will be thrown in the dust bin by the British media.
Emma played terrific tennis in the first set particularly her fantastic short angle backhand shoits but her serving levels dipped in the 2nd set and she lost the length on her ground shots, She recovered well in set 3 and should have served it out at 5-4 extremely frustrating for me that she could not get the job done I thought she was going to make the tie break then win it there, She should just take it as a learning curve and regroup and come back stronger in miami, i am certain she will. lets go in miami emma
I thought her serve didn’t look right, she’s had a stiff back the past few days so that made it hard for her to hold. Her fitness isn’t fully there yet.
I think she’s made some great strides this tournament tbh. She’s definitely more free hitting. Idk what happened at AO, Guadalajara, and Sydney. Her groundies and serves are trash. She’s moving faster than expected tbh. I say she’ll make a SF run at least 1 masters this season.
She’s had a stiff back so her serve wasn’t as strong. She’s still adjusting to all the work it seems, she’ll get stronger.
Raducanu looks like some kind of mix of Radwanska and Swiatek. Looking forward to see her progress as Iga's and hopefully not that many injuries as Aga had.
Emma Răducanu one hit wonder
Great game of Tennis...!!!
Saw quite a great deal of improvement with Emma's shot selection but Covid19 perhaps has taken away a lot of her fitness that we saw at US Open...!!!
It will be a matter of time we start seeing her at the top...!!!!
always some type of excuse from emma. now its her back. doesnèt credit martic for showing more grit and outlasting her. bottom line she got out played and had 2 chances to serve out
It's not the blister, now it's the back ,lucky winner with a lot of sponsors. Barty deserve more sponsors than her.
@@allenjoseph8759 Barty doesn't want more sponsors lol she likes staying lowkey
@@paigehere5176 are you ok bro? Barty is not loco.
@@allenjoseph8759 I'm not a "bro" and you didn't really get the point did you. It's known Barty likes to stay out of the spotlight and doesn't care much about all this.
@@paigehere5176 I'm deeply sorry to call you bro. Listen carefully, tennis is a business, any player playing for the money. You are the one missing the point. Don't let people fool you about barty don't want to be in the spotlight. Do you know how many grandslams you have to win to make $30million, 10 grandslams. In sponsorships you can make 50 millions in 1 year. Believe me , they are not playing for fun . It's all about the money.
So True.
Congrats to both, especially to Petra she really deserved and considering such low support from the crowd, opposite to Emma ! Commentators keep saying for Emma number 13 in the world, this is somehow artificial, without Us open she would hardly be in top100, let the girl play a lot of matches, all this praise for her is not making good and create false expectations ! Also noted very cold handshake, she barely looked at Petra !
Its cold when bubbles burst, very cold.
A pretty even battle!Could go either way!Emma played some great points,but in the end was beaten!A very good match!
Emma actually played really well though she looked tired in some parts during the match she shows so much talent she just needs more experience
The hype killed. Sure, but this was a balanced match. GG both Girlz
Look at that packed stadium! No wonder these ladies want equal pay as the men... *eye roll*.
Lol
usta is selling an atp event.
Emma played well but it will be a tough loss for her, having come close to winning it.
Happy for the veteran.
Emma actually played well but ultimately lost because she's still not fully at the fitness level required to grind out these matches week in week out on the pro circuit, but she'll get there. Also,she needs to iron out those double faults as well, she hardly served any double faults in 2 weeks at the US Open!
She’s had a stiff back the past few days, that’s why her serve wasn’t as strong. It made it harder for her hold but she made it close. She just needs to keep working and her body will get stronger.
@@jgooner894 actually just read Emma's comments that she's still suffering from a stiff back leading her to power down her serve(now I understand the unusually high number of double faults!) and the stats during the match backed this up. Had Emma been fully fit, there's no way Petra would have won that match. But she has also acknowledged that she's not at the fitness level yet to be able to compete consistently at this level. Hope Will and Torben can work on that!
@Sean she doesn't need excuses, she's already a Slam champion at aged 18 whereas the other player Petra is 31yo,been on the pro circuit for over 13 years and has yet to win a major WTA title let alone a Slam vs Emma who has yet to complete her first full year on the circuit! You'll soon see her full potential once she comes up to speed with her fitness level and more experience. You can already see glimpses of her talent in the first set where she played some stunning shots to clinch it.
@@eyeofthetiger6002 Stiff back lol. What an absolute joke. The day after she was swinging a golf club. She’s a marketing dream but she’ll never be a sports queen.
@@domremyuk Emma's "problems" right now is what any young tennis players like Emma starting out in their careers can only dream about and would gladly have!🤣 Instead of grinding it out on the challenger circuits, staying in cheap motels, getting cheap flights, having to qualify for all the major tournaments, wondering if they'll earn enough to cover their expenses and just hoping that they can progress deep enough in any tournament they enter to be able to do that,(any thoughts at this stage of winning a Slam is just an unrealistic pipe dream!)Emma's already a millionairess, Slam winner, world sporting icon, travelling first class to all tournaments on BA as she's sponsored by them and staying in the best hotels and apartments. When and not if she sorted out her fitness issues, you'll see the US Open version of Emma winning regularly on the tour circuit!
Yes, baby!
No doubt , Emma is charismatic and so talented and looks so number one in near future , Emma's weak point though is she lack's the killer instinct , killer strikes and power .
Emma, as always, a great talent great person. Though Emma lost this one I see her game improving. I'd ask the coach to look at her/their tactics in this game. I thought they might be re-examined as I thought a few changes and Emma must have won. Not enough hitting side to side. Perhaps her level of fitness was slightly below parr?
I feel that she wasn't able to play the big points very well and also her fitness let her down. Her style of play is also very taxing to her body. She could try coming into net more to finish points and hit more drop shots especially since these courts are slow.
why WTA uploads only 720p jittery low fps highlights while ATP channel uploads 1080 60fps? Do better
Improved play from Emma with better controlled return balls. One thing though, after returning a ball, she must anticipate where the ball will come back and be prepared to deal with it. Don't wait passively and react somehow only after it had landed somewhere unexpectedly. Much improved anyway.
Try for steady improvement and fitness.
Emma is ranked way higher than her ability.
her 'ability' earned her 2000 ranking points at the US Open, so rightfully put her where she deserves to be based on how the ranking system works. Such a stupid comment.
@@tomgeoffrey the ranking system is not fool proof.
@@deusexmachina9776 Agreed. the ranking system is of course based on the success at the various tournaments over a period of time, not on who you defeat. (the latter is used to evaluate the greatness of a player compared to her peers over the period of a career). normally the winner of a tournament faces opposition which include some who are highly ranked/seeded. this was not the case at the US Open that Emma won. she was the winner and gets the points. so yes, it is not a fool proof system and I think most will look at the result and correctly see the anomally. Emma is not at the level of a 12th ranked player, yet. Martic is not at the level of a 79th ranked player but she beat Emma. take the ranking system with a grain of salt.
In spite of many inspired shots, ER is still playing much more conservatively than at the US Open. Much of the time she hits back to the centre rather than going for a winner. Prolonging the rallies isn't her game.
she might be using these matches as live practices/trainings. Off- court training/conditioning is the main focus as she is preparing for Wimbledon.
@@tocrob lol
Her movement and anticipation has significantly improved since late last year (post-US Open). I saw her constantly touching her back and icing it during changeovers so that might have affected her serve. Her serve was just average this match and Petra was serving really well, which probably made the difference.
Emma only turn on the style at majors.🤣
It's sad that Raducanu lost again because this week she played really better for the first time since US Open.
