Britain’s Emma Raducanu lost in the first round of the Abu Dhabi Open as she went down in straight sets to former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova.
Raducanu was beaten 6-3, 6-4 as she proved unable to take advantage of her late wildcard entry to the main draw.
She made a positive start against Czech Vondrousova and led 3-1 after an early break of serve, but she then surrendered the first set by losing five consecutive games.
