Emma Raducanu conceded her decision not to compete for a month during the North American hardcourt swing was not conducive to her producing her best tennis under pressure on Tuesday night as she was defeated 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 by Sofia Kenin in the US Open first round.

I would have preferred to probably play a little bit more before coming into the US Open," said Raducanu. I know when I have a lot of matches, just like every player, you feel really good, you feel like everything's automatic. So, yeah, I think I can learn from it and manage my schedule slightly differently, maybe."
