Emma Raducanu beats Yue Yuan to reach Korea Open quarter-finals

Yue, the world number 40, recovered an early break in the opening set but Raducanu landed another ***** in the ninth game before taking her first set point on serve.

Having come from 4-3 behind in the first set, Raducanu maintained her momentum at the start of the second, establishing a 3-0 advantage with a quick-***** double break either side of holding serve to love.

The Briton’s charge to the finish line was slowed as Yue reduced the deficit to 3-2; but, with her opponent growing in confidence, Raducanu saved a break point to hold serve in a crucial sixth game.

After breaking Yue’s serve for a third time in the set, Raducanu was unable to take any of her first five match points as she attempted to serve out the contest, before Yue clinched her fourth break point in an epic eighth game.

Unfazed, Raducanu recovered from that frustration to complete a hard-fought victory on Yue’s serve.
