Emma Raducanu sets up Coco Gauff Italian Open clash after awkward umpire moment
Emma Raducanu made a statement as she stormed back to beat Veronika Kudermetova and reach the last 16 in Rome. The Brit responded perfectly after losing a close first set, stepping it up and sealing a 5-7 6-0 6-1 victory.
Raducanu had an awkward mishap at the end of the second set when the umpire reminded her that she couldn’t have a lengthy discussion with her team. She quickly apologised and regrouped to book her spot in round four. But things will only get tougher as Raducanu faces world No. 3 and recent Madrid finalist Coco Gauff.
