Raducanu beaten in French Open first round

Raducanu beaten in French Open first round

Emma Raducanu's French Open campaign came to an early end as she suffered a frustrating first-round defeat by Argentina's Solana Sierra.

After failing to win a single game in a dismal first set that only lasted 25 minutes, the British number one fought back from a double-break down in the second to force a tie-break.

However, she could not see through the turnaround as world number 68 Sierra regrouped to win 6-0 7-6 (7-4).

Raducanu's 2026 season has been disrupted by a post-viral illness that kept her off the WTA Tour for more than two months following Indian Wells in March.

Her build-up to the French Open had been far from ideal, with a first-round defeat at the Strasbourg Open earlier this week her only match on clay.
