Emma Raducanu revealed she had to overcome some early nerves before breezing past Shelby Rogers in the US Open last 16.
The British sensation dismantled her American opponent 6-2 6-1 to reach the quarter-finals in New York, only the third player in the tournament's history to do so having come through qualifying.
And while it may have looked comfortable, Raducanu suggested it may have been nerves that were responsible for her getting broken in the first game of the match, and thanked the crowd for their support even though she was facing an American.
