Emma Raducanu was blasted off the court by Elena Rybakina as the British No 1 fell to a 6-1 6-2 defeat to exit the US Open at the third-round stage.
After breezing through the first two rounds of the tournament she won in 2021, Raducanu faced a huge step up in level against the former Wimbledon and champion and Australian Open finalist Rybakina. The ninth seed broke early in both sets and was dominant in the rallies as she raced to a 62-minute victory.
