16-04-2022 02:10 PM

Ammon News - Emma Raducanu suffered significant blister issues on her right foot, which led to a 6-1 6-1 loss against Marketa Vondrousova in Great Britain's Billie Jean King Cup tie against Czech Republic.

Raducanu struggled from early on and conceded the first set in just 26 minutes. She received treatment to her right foot after and returned to court.

Despite treatment, the British No 1 found it increasingly difficult to move around the clay court in the second set. She showed the resilience that has become one of her trademarks, but could not halt the power and prowess of Vondrousova.

The Czech Republic now lead the Billie Jean King Cup tie against Great Britain 2-1. One further singles match is to come, and a doubles match if needed, in the best-of-five match tie.
