EMMA RADUCANU is set to face Serena Williams in the first round of the Cincinnati Masters.

What happened here?!?” And @katievarnadoe added: “Y’all are going to lose a lot of future fans for this, plus I smell a false advertisement claim in the making. Other fans went on to reveal that their own plans to watch the match had been ruined. Raducanu and Williams were supposed to go head-to-head in their Cincinnati Masters first round match on Monday, but the encounter will now take place a day later. This week’s clash between the pair has been hotly-anticipated since the draw was made. A star-studded line-up will battle for honours in Ohio as players look to hit form ahead of the US Open, which gets underway later this month. Williams, meanwhile, is one of the most recognisable faces in tennis, having won 23 Grand Slam titles throughout her illustrious career.

In a highly anticipated opening-round match at the Western & Southern Open, Emma Raducanu took down 23-time Grand Slam winner in straight sets.

"I hadn't played tennis in like two, three months, and I was kind of just dreaming that one day I'm going to play on Ashe, and one day I'm going to be at that level and playing these great players myself. Raducanu readies for Azarenka: "I remember more recently when she was playing in the US Open and made the final in 2020 during the bubble, I was studying for my exams," Raducanu said. Stat of the match: Raducanu hit just one unforced error in the match while striking 14 winners. Everything that she's achieved is so inspirational and it was a true honor to share the court with her." "I think from the beginning to the end, I maybe looked calm, but I just knew how important every single point was, because you let up a little bit and she's going to be all over you," Raducanu told reporters. Raducanu fired just one unforced error to go with eight winners in the first set, while Williams misfired on 12 unforced errors to go with 11 winners.
