“There are tough courts where they are the most comfortable. He has won some like Maria Sakri and former Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka. Despite the loss in the semi -finals, there are many positives. I thought it was still well played.
Radokano also reached the Miami Open in his first WTA 1000 quarter -finals, the quarter -finals in the Queens Club and the third round in Wimbledon, where she lost to World No.1 Arina Saballana in a tournament match.
After leaving the British No. 3, Radokano’s race in Washington made sure that he once again left Katie Bolter behind to become a top -ranked British player.

The result was not on her way but the performance was there and there were signs that she was playing the right kind of tennis.”

“She is 22 years old and she is still very young in women’s tennis and she is so young, but now it is only relieved that she is working hard in where she is – what she does – and getting so many matches under her belt.” “Make sure she’s trying to implement herself and do the right thing in the match court, which we saw it doing last week, and most importantly, the injury is free.
“I think this is the biggest challenge for him, becoming a stronger athlete and being able to compete at the highest level in the week out.”
