Raducanu suffered a shock defeat in the first-round of the Madrid Open
Naomi Osaka says she is "embracing the clay a lot more now" as she captured her first victory on the surface since 2022 in the Madrid Open first round on Wednesday."I've had several 'incidents' on clay but I'm embracing it a lot more now," the 26-year-old Osaka told reporters in the Spanish capital.
Emma Raducanu’s unpredictable season continued to swing from lows to highs and back again as she went down by a 6-2, 6-2 scoreline in the first round of the Madrid Open to Maria Lourdes Carle, a 24-year-old Argentine with just one previous WTA Tour victory to her name.
