Raducanu shocked in first-round Miami exit by Andreescu

Emma Raducanu suffered a first-round exit at the Miami Open after losing to Bianca Andreescu 6-3; 3-6; 6-2 with the Canadian now advancing to play seventh seed Maria Sakkari in round two.

“Both of us have won a Grand Slam, we’re both good players,” said Raducanu. “It was always going to be a difficult matchup but I think that there were definitely patches of some pretty good tennis in there.”
