The Californian sun got the better of Emma Raducanu in Indian Wells on Sunday, in combination with a strong effort from the experienced Croatian player Petra Martic.

Raducanu remains visibly short of ideal conditioning after a disrupted few months, in which she has struggled to back up her miraculous breakthrough in New York. Despite producing a magnificent first-set tie-break, she faded physically in the middle of this 6-7, 6-4, 7-5 defeat.

Her last few tournaments have seen her suffer a blister at the Australian Open and a hip injury in Guadalajara three weeks ago, preventing her from building any momentum.
