Emma Raducanu ’s upcoming WTA Tour schedule remains up in the air. The Brit has lost her last three matches, spanning first-round exits in Abu Dhabi and Singapore, and a third-round showing at the Australian Open.

Emma Raducanu suffered a third straight defeat in the opening round of the Abu Dhabi Open. The 22-year-old was beaten 6-3 6-4 by former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova to add to her losses to Iga Swiatek in the third round of the Australian Open and to Cristina Bucsa in Singapore last week.

Another week, another early exit for Emma Raducanu – and the inconsistency of her performances underlines the need for her to appoint a coach.

Emma Raducanu has crashed out of the Abu Dhabi Open in the first round after Marketa Vondrousova beat the British star 6-3 6-4 on Tuesday. The result means Raducanu has suffered back-to-back first-round defeats on the WTA Tour after her early exit at the Singapore Open last week.
