Emma Raducanu is enjoying her best tournament run since her 2021 US Open triumph and is through to the quarter-finals of the Miami Open.

Raducanu has reached her first WTA 1000 quarter-finals and has won four matches in a row at the same tournament for the first time since her grand slam victory in New York.

The Briton defeated 17th seed Amanda Anisimova in the last-16, backing up victories over eight seed Emma Navarro and the in-form McCartney Kessler, who retired when Raducanu was 6-1 3-0 up.

The 22-year-old, who ended her coaching trial with Vladimir Platenik on the eve of the Miami tournament, has been working with former mentors Mark Petchey and Jane O’Donoghue during the fortnight.

She has spoken of how she has found “trust” and “fun” off the court, which is allowing her to “express” her game in reaching the quarter-finals, where Raducanu will face her fourth American opponent in a row in fourth seed Jessica Pegula.

Here’s everything you need to know:
