Emma Raducanu: British No 2 knocked out of Madrid Open despite positive performance against Marta Kostyuk | Tennis News

Emma Radokano came out of the Madrid Open, despite the positive performance against the muddress Marta Costoiek.

The former champion in the United States of Open reached the quarter -finals in one of the first WTA Tour events for the first time in the Miami Open last month, but this feat will not repeat in the Spanish capital.

Raducanu scored an impressive victory over Susan Lamamin in the opening round, but despite showing flashes of global intelligence, she was not able to stop Costyuk in Ukraine, which was planted in the twenty-fourth, and won 6-4 2-6 6-2 victory.

Radokano had comfortable Kostyuk comfortably at his last meeting in the same tournament three years ago, but he started a bad start here.

She dug on her way to return from 1-3 to 3-3 for only two doubles to see her immediately falls back again, as Kostyuk continues to take the opening set.

Kostyuk received a cure for her right wrist before the second group, and this time Radokano was a stronger start, with the level of the 22 -year -old match thanks to four consecutive games.

But a bad game of Raducanu, which continues to work informally with coach Mark Petchey, to start identifying the tone as Kostyuk has played its way to the finish line.

“I lost a very easy match for her three years ago, so it was not good memories,” said 22 -year -old Costyuk.

“I knew Emma is a great fighter and she has achieved a lot and can play amazing tennis. It will be a very happy battle by winning.”

Fleming: Radiokano finds her clay feet

Colin Fleming, talks Sky Sports tennis: “Emma Radokano is competing. You will be disappointed at this stage, but I think that when dust settles, there is a lot to take it from this match. This was sometimes a good level on the surface where you didn’t play much tennis.

“If you can continue to work, and continue to find its feet in the clay, move, balance, and rest on this surface. I think it can still get some great results in this mud stadium season, and I think it will serve it well to the grass and ardu.

“Many of the positives you should take from this.”
