Emma Raducanu reached her first WTA 1,000 quarter-final after defeating Amanda Anisimova 6-1, 6-3 in Miami. This victory marks her first streak of four consecutive main-draw wins since her US Open title in 2021. Following a difficult period, including five losses in six matches and a recent coaching change, Raducanu's performance highlighted her dominance, especially in returning. She remarked on her improved mental state, stressing the importance of having supportive people around her and being true to herself on the court.
"I've come a long way in the last week since Indian Wells, I wasn't necessarily feeling great about my tennis, about everything."
"When I play my best I am definitely authentic, true to myself and creative. I feel when I am boxed into a regimented way then I am not able to express myself in the same way."
