Emma Raducanu ended a nearly three-year drought on outdoor clay with a resilient 7-6(4), 6-4 victory over Suzan Lamens in the Madrid Open first round. The win marks her first clay-court triumph since the 2022 French Open.

The Brit overcame early breaks in both sets, showcasing her competitive grit. This was her first match since reaching the Miami Open quarter-finals and boosts her WTA live ranking from 49th to 47th.

Encouragingly, Raducanu’s serve showed improvement—landing 61% of first serves and hitting four aces. She next faces 24th seed Marta Kostyuk, holding a 1-1 career record against the Ukrainian.
