JAKARTA Emma Raducanu advanced to the quarter-finals of her first WTA 1000 after a landslide win in two straight sets over Amanda Anisimova at the Miami Open 2025.

The England player has performed brilliantly since the beginning of the match against his enemy from the United States.

He only needed 24 minutes to secure the first set on his way to winning 6-1 and 6-3 on Tuesday, March 25, 2025, morning WIB.

This result made Raducanu for the first time managed to win four WTA main-half matches in a row since his US Open victory in 2021.

"I've been through a long journey since Indian Wells. I'm not very happy with my game at all," the 22-year-old told Sky Sports.

On paper, this should be a very difficult match. Anisimova is a former talented teenager who reached the semifinals of Roland Garros at the age of 17 of 2019.

Anisimova then decided to quit professional tennis in 2023 to tackle mental health. He then marked a comeback this season by winning his first WTA 1000 title at Qatar Open last month.

However, in this match, Raducanu again appeared innocent. The performance continued his brilliant performance over the past week.

Raducanu is certain to return to world number 50 for the first time since being absent for eight months in 2023 after undergoing surgery on both his wrists and ankles.

Prior to this tournament, Raducanu lost five to six games since the Australian Open 2025. In addition, last week he also ended his partnership with coach Vladimir Platenik after just two weeks.

Raducanu will next face world number four Jessica Pegula. The American player qualified eighth after defeating Marta Kostyuk from Ukraine 6-2 and 6-3.

Elsewhere, world number one Aryna Sabalenka also advanced to the quarter-finals after winning 6-4 and 6-4 over defending champion Danielle Collins, who is also from the United States.
