Former ยูเอสโอเพ่น Champion Emma Raducanu is through to the third round of the Australian Open after beating Amanda Anisimova.
The British No.2 struggled with more injury problems during her second-round tie with Anisimova. Raducanu experienced back pain and spasms which required treatment. However she managed to claim the victory in straight set 6-3 7-5.
It is the first time Raducanu has reached the last 32 in Melbourne. She will now face World No.2 Iga Swiatek who will present a difficult test for the 21-year-old. Raducanu is yet to beat Swiatek in her career so far.
