Raducanu advances to Miami Open quarter-finals

Emma Raducanu reached the Miami Open quarter-finals on Tuesday after a straight-sets victory in Florida, marking her best run at the tournament and a significant step in her comeback season.

The former US Open champion secured the win with aggressive baseline play and improved serving consistency, sealing the match in under two hours. “I’m really pleased with how I handled the key moments,” Raducanu said afterwards. “I stayed focused when it mattered.”

Her coach added, “Emma is building momentum again. The belief is coming back with each match.”

Raducanu, who has battled injuries over the past year, has now won multiple matches in succession for the first time this season. The result moves her into the last eight of a WTA 1000 event, underlining a return to form on the hard courts.
