The 2021 US Open champion has not played at SW19 for two years but looked fit and healthy on her Eastbourne debut
triumphed in the battle of the US Open champions as she saw off 2017 winner at Flushing Meadows Sloane Stephens, winning 6-4, 6-0 in Eastbourne.
The British No 5 won nine games in a row to complete victory of the match as Stephens racked up a seventh defeat in her last eight matches. Raducanu had won the first set of that match to love and Stephens did once again look nervy early on, failing to top 95 miles an hour on first serve and hitting the ball tentatively it seemed.
The break though was immediately returned and in fact triggered four breaks of serve in a row between 2-2 and 4-4 in the first set.
