Raducanu recovers from rocky start to win
The Herald
|January 19, 2026
TENNIS Emma Raducanu recovered from a poor start to see off Mananchaya Sawangkaew in the opening round of the Australian Open.
-
Defeat to diminutive Thai debutante Sawangkaew would have been the worst grand slam result of Raducanu’s career but in the end she eased to a comfortable 6-4 6-1 victory under the lights on Margaret Court Arena.
Raducanu, who will next meet Russian Anastasia Potapova, said: “I feel very happy to have got through that match. From the beginning I felt like she was playing really well. I'm really proud of how I fought back in the first set.”
