Despite an early exit in Singapore, Emma Raducanu feels she actually played better than at the Australian Open.

Emma Raducanu refused to be too downcast after suffering an opening round exit at the Singapore Open when the British seventh seed lost 5-7 7-5 7-5 to the 101st-ranked Cristina Bucsa. Raducanu progressed to the third round of the recently concluded Australian Open for the first time in her career before losing to five-times Grand Slam champion and Polish second-seed Iga Swiatek in straight sets.

Iga Swiatek brutalized Emma Raducanu 6-1 6-0 in a highly-anticipated Australian Open third-round match that was nothing else but pure domination from one player. After the Briton collected straight-set wins over Ekaterina Alexandrova and Amanda Anisimova, there was hope that she could threat or possibly even upset the world No. 2 in Melbourne.
