British tennis star Emma Raducanu suffered a three-set round of 16 defeat to Ukraine's Elina Svitolina at the ASB Classic in Auckland on Thursday.
This was just the second match on the WTA tour that Raducanu had played in since last April, as the 2021 US Open Women's Singles Champion had to undergo surgeries on her wrists and left ankle last year. This kept her out of action for the second half of the 2023 season.
