Emma Raducanu Struggles Physically in First-Round Exit at Ningbo Open
Emma Raducanu again struggled physically in a first-round exit at the Ningbo Open, just a week after retiring from her opening match in Wuhan due to dizziness in hot and humid conditions.
Raducanu initially seemed fine, with lower temperatures than the previous week, but began to look lethargic early in the second set against China's Zhu Lin. She called the doctor after seven games and eventually slumped to a 3-6 6-4 6-1 defeat.
