Emma Raducanu Preview – Can young Brit move ahead?

Emma Raducanu claimed a straight-set victory over Switzerland’s Stefanie Voegele in the First Round of action at the US Open.

She was aggressive, composed and showed a lot of maturity in the match.

This was her first Grand Slam match overseas having had that Wimbledon breakout in the summer, racing to the Fourth Round on her Slam debut.

Despite some little nerves showing when closing out against Voegele, Raducanu looked good.

In the match outright for US Open tennis betting, Raducanu is at a quote of 4/5* (odds taken 18:26 GMT 1st September 2021 at Unibet).

Raducanu arrived in New York with some good form behind her.

She had built some nice confidence by reaching the final of a Challenger tournament in Chicago.

 

Then there were three very smooth qualification wins at the US Open to reach the main draw from her.

Raducanu won all three qualifiers without dropping a set.

Six of her last seven wins at all levels of competitions have been by a score of 2-0.

The Raducanu 2-0 Set Betting pick for tennis betting is at a quote of 7/4* (odds taken 18:26 GMT 1st September 2021 at Unibet).

Interestingly, however, in the one previous meeting the two players had, it was Zhang who came through comfortably with the score.

 

Shuai Zhang Preview – Can Zhang do a number on Raducanu again?

In the first round of San Jose in early August, China’s Shuai Zhang was up against Raducanu.

Zhang won the contest 2-0.

That, incidentally, was the only WTA level match that Raducanu played between her Wimbledon exit and the US Open.

In the match outright for US Open tennis betting, Zhang is a quote of even money* (odds taken 18:26 GMT 1st September 2021 at Unibet).

So the bookies don’t think that she is out of this.

She shouldn’t be as she is in decent enough form at the moment.

Zhang has won five of her last seven matches on the hard court surface.

In three of her last four hard court tournaments on the WTA, she has won exactly two matches before bowing out.

So she has been handling herself pretty well.

She has made it to the Round of 32 in three of her last five appearances at Flushing Meadows.
