Emma Raducanu breezes past Daria Kasatkina in Strasbourg to continue French Open preparations
Emma Raducanu continued her impressive clay-court form as she swept aside sixth seed Daria Kasatkina in the first round of the Internationaux de Strasbourg.
The British number two, who won three games on the surface for the first time in her career last week as she reached the quarter-finals of the Italian Open, beat the world number 17 6-1 6-3.
The second set started in the same vein for Raducanu, who served for a 1-0 lead, before seven successive breaks of serve saw the Briton emerge with a chance to serve for the match at 5-3.
