- British teenager beaten 6-4, 6-4 in Stuttgart
- Raducanu playing first WTA event on clay
Emma Raducanu became the latest victim of the in-form Iga Swiatek as the world No 1 advanced to the semi-finals of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix Open in Stuttgart.
Swiatek extended her winning run to 21 matches with a 6-4, 6-4 victory, but was made to work hard by her teenage opponent. The result means Johanna Konta remains the last British woman to defeat a current world No 1. Konta beat Angelique Kerber at Eastbourne in 2017.
