Emma Raducanu has reached the semi-finals of the Transylvania Open in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, after a dominant 6-0, 6-4 victory over Maja Chwalinska. Raducanu, 23, has yet to drop a set in the tournament and is now one win away from her first final since her US Open victory in 2021. She has adopted a more aggressive, instinctive playing style, which has helped her build momentum following her split with coach Francisco Roig and her recent second-round exit at the Australian Open. Raducanu will face Ukraine’s Oleksandra Oliynykova in the semi-finals, who defeated Chinese player Wang Xinyu. Raducanu’s performance has improved her world ranking, potentially moving her up to No.25, and she is optimistic about her chances of reaching her second WTA final. Meanwhile, British player Katie Boulter also advanced to the semi-finals of the Ostrava Open, marking her first semi-final appearance since May 2024, while Sonay Kartal was defeated at the Abu Dhabi Open quarter-finals.
