Emma Raducanu’s against-the-odds win at last year’s US Open is one of the finest British sporting achievements of all time – and now, the British teenager is back in New York looking to defend her crown.

In the year since her unlikely triumph, Raducanu has become a global star – taking home the Sports Personality of the Year Award at the end of 2021 and cracking the top 10 in the LTA rankings for the first time in July.

Her results, however, have been somewhat inconsistent. She’s suffered second-round losses in each of the three Grand Slam events so far this year and struggled to find the form that made her unstoppable during her incredible Flushing Meadows victory last year.

Still, there are signs that she’s coming back into form just in time – with impressive wins against former World Number One’s Serena Williams and Victoria Azarenka at the recent Cincinnati Masters, boosting hopes that she could go on another memorable run.

First up for Raducanu is a tie against French star Alize Cornet, who herself reached the Quarter-Finals of the 2022 Australian Open. The pair have never played before and it looks set to be a closely fought match as they each aim to make it to the next stage of the tournament.

RadioTimes.com brings you all the details about Emma Raducanu’s next match, including what time she’s playing and how to watch every moment on TV.
