More from Emma Raducanu following her win against Caroline Garcia: “It is very difficult to play Caroline who has been having such a good season. I was definitely the underdog going out here in her own house, on clay. I definitely turned it around, I fought really hard, I dug in.

“That was a really good test for myself because I haven’t had those level matches very often. I had only two against top ten players and I know Caroline is a top ten player.

“I am very pleased with my performance and very happy to bring the point home for the team and go into tomorrow 1-1.”
