<\/a>More rain in Seoul delays Raducanu v Cristian further<\/p>\n

The courts were almost dry and now it\u2019s raining again in Seoul. <\/p>\n

Caty McNally v Diana Shnaider (6-2, 2-6) was also suspended, with the match level at one set apiece.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Rain delay continues <\/p>\n

A team of tournament staff armed with pink towels are on court in Seoul., attempting to dry the surface. <\/p>\n

Start of play has been pushed back to 11am BST for now – but that may be optimistic. <\/p>\n

Jamie Braidwood16 September 2025 10:40<\/p>\n

<\/a>The rain has arrived in Seoul<\/p>\n

The start of today\u2019s action was delayed by rain and some spots on the court suggests the wet weather has returned in Seoul. <\/p>\n

That could delay the start of Raducanu\u2019s match by a little while. <\/p>\n

<\/a>GAME, SET AND MATCH! <\/p>\n

Krejcikova wraps up a 6-1 6-2 win over the qualifier Tatiana Prozorova, with the Czech cruising through to the second round. <\/p>\n

Krejcikova will play the winner of Emma Raducanu\u2019s match against Jaqueline Cristian, which will be up next. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s only Krejcikova\u2019s 13th win of the season after a difficult start to the year – due to injuries and fitness. But she is coming into form. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Raducanu hopes to build on Francisco Roig partnership <\/p>\n

Raducanu will continue working with coach Francisco Roig until the end of the year and hopes to continue seeing improvements after a positive start to their partnership. <\/p>\n

\u201cRight now we\u2019re working through to the end of the year,\u201d Raducanu said following her US Open exit. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s only been three weeks, but I think it\u2019s been a pretty successful three weeks in a sense that we\u2019ve made good improvements.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there are certain parts of my game which have gotten better for sure. Today my weaknesses were highlighted, but I think it\u2019s only been three weeks, and he can\u2019t really work miracles. So I know we\u2019re doing good work, and I just look forward to continuing.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/a>Emma Raducanu aims to be positive despite bruising US Open loss<\/p>\n

Emma Raducanu said she was focused on continuing to build her momentum despite a bruising 6-1 6-2 defeat to Elena Rybakina in the third round of the US Open. <\/p>\n

The British No 1 is aiming to be seeded for the Australian Open in order to hopefully avoiding drawing the big-name opponents that ended her runs at the grand slams this season. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s going to be important to just look at the last few months as a whole and the improvements that I\u2019m making, because a match like that can easily get you down if you let it,\u201d Raducanu said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I\u2019m going to try and not do that and regroup and just work hard and get ready for Asia.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve just got to do my best in the next few months until Australia to just keep working to try and close the gap.\u201d<\/p>\n
