The British star lost 6-3, 6-3 at the New York tournament, dashing her hopes of repeating last year’s fairytale victory. Cornet used her drop shot well especially to make quick work of Raducanu, who was 11th. It is the first time he has lost in the first round of a grand slam. Defeat and relegation in the world rankings could make things more difficult as he faces a draw with the top players at the start of future tournaments. However, it was a difficult first match for Radoukanou. France’s Cornet is ranked 40th in the world and has had a strong year, notably ending world number one Iga Swiatek’s 37-match winning streak at Wimbledon. Image: France’s Alize Cornet was too good for the British teenager Raducanu rose to prominence a year ago after impressively winning the 2021 US Open as a qualifier – but has since struggled to come close to those lofty heights. However, the Briton is only 19 years old and potentially has many more years to develop. There was better news for other British players starting their US Open campaigns on Tuesday as Cameron Norrie and Dan Evans both reached the second round. Norrie, the seventh seed, beat Benoit Perre 6-0 7-6 (7-1) 6-0, while Evans beat Jiri Vesely 6-4 6-1 6-1.
