Crashing out of the US Open 2025<\/p>\n
Although Eala was favoured, ranked No. 71 compared to Bucsa\u2019s No. 95, she fell in a competitive match, 6-4, 3-6, 4-6. <\/p>\n
Bucsa, a doubles specialist with a prior win over 2021 US Open champion Emma Raducanu, capitalised on her hard-court experience, having previously defeated Eala in a 2021 ITF event. <\/p>\n
Eala\u2019s exit was disappointing, as her draw had opened up, offering a potential third-round clash with\u00a0No. 19 seed Elise Mertens\u00a0or a blockbuster fourth-round match against world\u00a0No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka\u00a0or\u00a0Filipina-Canadian Leylah Fernandez<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Crashing out of the US Open 2025 Although Eala was favoured, ranked No. 71 compared to Bucsa\u2019s No.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":102339,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[565],"tags":[64,63,85,747],"class_list":{"0":"post-102338","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-tennis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102338"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102338\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102339"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
