Emma Raducanu overcomes early stutter on Madrid clay
Emma Raducanu rallied back from 2-5 down in the first set before switching gears to post a 7-6 (7/3), 6-0 result against Czech Republic's Tereza Martincova and set up an intriguing second round with fellow 19-year-old Marta Kostyuk. Playing just her second ever tour-level tournament on clay, the British No.9 seed converted all four break point opportunities she created and saved six of seven break points on her own serve on her way to the 96-minute win - her second success over Martincova in two weeks. "I was definitely just getting adjusted to the courts and the surroundings," Raducanu said of the opening set.
