BREAKING: Emma Raducanu crashes out of the Australian Open in the second round following a 3-6 6-7 defeat to American world No.7 Coco Gauff.
The British No.1 went into the match as an underdog and was attempting to beat a top 10 player for the first time but fell short at Melbourne Park in what was the first competitive meeting between the two young star players.
Raducanu, 20, can be proud of her performance and despite her defeat, looks vastly improved in the early stages of 2023 after struggles with form and injury last year which saw her slip from world No.10 to her current rank of No.77.
