Emma Raducanu Stuns Vondrousova to Set Up Showdown with Sabalenka

Posted : 03 July 2025

Emma Raducanu arrived at Wimbledon this year with modest expectations, looking to rediscover form following a rocky grass-court season and personal challenges. But any doubts quickly faded after a commanding second-round performance against 2023 champion Marketa Vondrousova, propelling her into the last 32 at SW19 for the third time in four appearances.

 

 The emphatic win sets up a highly anticipated third-round clash with world number one Aryna Sabalenka on Friday. Raducanu, currently ranked 40th in the world, played with composure and precision to dismantle Vondrousova in straight sets.

 

Reflecting on her performance, the 22-year-old described it as one of her best matches in recent memory, adding, "I didn't feel like I was doing anything outrageous, which gives me a lot of confidence." Her measured dominance not only showcased her improved mental focus but also signaled that her belief is firmly back on track.

 

Just days ago, Raducanu had spoken openly about low expectations and mental distractions, citing difficult personal news and ongoing back spasms as obstacles. Her early-round win over fellow Brit Mimi Xu offered encouraging signs, but the performance against Vondrousova was a clear statement of intent.

 

As she prepares for a major test against Sabalenka, Raducanu carries the hopes of the home crowd and the momentum of a resurgent run. With confidence building and her game peaking at just the right time, the British star may yet author another memorable Wimbledon chapter.
