EMMA'S SLAM AGONY GOES ON
Evening Standard
|January 18, 2023
>AUSSIE OPEN EXIT IS FIFTH EARLY DEFEAT ON TROT SINCE US TRIUMPH
EMMA RADUCANU today bowed out in the second round of the Australian Open, losing 6-3, 7-6 against No7 seed Coco Gauff in Melbourne.
Billed as a match-up between two of tennis's rising stars, the manner in which the clash played out on Rod Laver Arena suggests the women's game is in capable hands for the foreseeable future.
At times, it was nervy, ugly tennis, but at others it was the perfect advertisement for an aggressive, positive approach, as both players went for their big groundstrokes, regardless of the consequences.
In the end, Raducanu (right) was undone by her inconsistency - in the first set alone she hit 21 unforced errors while Gauff, the younger at 18 but the more experienced on the WTA Tour, showed the grit and determination to hold on.
It means for a fifth straight Grand Slam since her fairytale US Open success, the British No1 has not made it past the second round. In addition, she is yet to earn a win over a top-10 player.
