Emma Raducanu put together one of her most impressive performances earlier this week, yet still fell short against Aryna Sabalenka at the Cincinnati Open.

Emma Raducanu was knocked out of the Cincinnati Open after a battling performance saw her slip to a narrow third-round defeat against world number one Aryna Sabalenka. Monday's match was the pair's second meeting of the year after Sabalenka edged to victory in their third-round encounter at Wimbledon.

Sabalenka's staggering tiebreak record illustrates her play under pressure but also her vulnerability in matches this year.
