Raducanu Struggles Continue
The inevitable has happened. Ranked a top 20 player for the entire season, Raducanu’s rankings have fallen to 83rd in the world following her inability to defend her US Open title.
In fact, the Brit was blown off court in the very first round of the season’s final Grand Slam, and as a result of that, lost a whopping amount of points she had garnered from having won the title in 2021.
Raducanu returned to court last week when she participated in the Slovenia Open, winning her opener against Dayana Yastremska in straight sets. Any signs of a turnaround in fortunes, however, evaporated soon after as Anna-Lena Friedsam sent her packing from the tournament in round two despite starting out a 9/2 underdog to win it.
Coming up against a player who has never been ranked better than 125th in the world, Raducanu will fancy her chances to get one step further in the tournament.

Uchijima Solid at the ITF Level
While Uchijima has shown a lot of promise on the ITF circuit – and that, in turn has helped her hit her career-best ranking of 125th in the world – she is yet to catch the WTA tour by storm.
In fact, this is the first season in which Uchijima has even featured at this level, participating in the French Open, Wimbledon and US Open qualifiers other than making it to the Chennai Open main draw last week.
While she won four of her qualifying rounds at the aforementioned Grand Slams, Uchijima is yet to make it to any of the main draws at a major. Add that to the fact she lost in the first round in Chennai too, we are looking at a player who has talent but is yet to record a main draw victory at the highest level.
Can she take advantage of Raducanu’s flagging confidence and earn her maiden win?
Raducanu v Uchijima Prediction and Tip
It’s interesting to note that Raducanu is a huge favourite here, starting out 3/25 to clinch this. While Raducanu remains a favourite for us too, there is enough evidence to believe it might not be as straightforward as that and Uchijima might even win a set.
Tip: Raducanu to win AND Over 18.5 games: 5/4 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
