Emma Raducanu's Wimbledon campaign ended in early disappointment after she was knocked out in round two following a 6-3 6-3 loss to Caroline Garcia. On a breezy centre court, the teen fought hard but ultimately came up short as she struggled to find a solution to the brute force coming from the 28-year-old’s racket.
The Frenchwoman did an impeccable job of taking time away from the youngster with her impressive and aggressive hitting. Raducanu seemed very shaky on the backhand side and was unable to make inroads with her serve which Garcia attacked more often than not.
The teen didn’t have the greatest start as she was broken in her opening service game, but hit straight back and consolidated serve to make it 2-2. After the hard-hitting Frenchwoman edged ahead 3-2, she broke Raducanu’s serve for the second time and in just 28 minutes, the world number 11 was 5-2 down.
