The former US Open champion was tested by her opponent, Renata Zarazúa, and forced to work hard for a straight-sets victory against the world No. 98. England booked their spot in the Euro 2024 quarterfinals on Sunday after Jude Bellingham's overhead kick in injury time saved Gareth Southgate's team from elimination after a lacklustre performance. "I'm incredibly happy to be back here, of course. And today it was, I mean, I was for sure nervous," Raducanu, who wore an England shirt to her practice session at Wimbledon on Sunday, told the BBC. "I think everyone could see that in my tennis a little bit, but at the end of the day, you have to just do what it takes to get over the line. And honestly, watching the football last night, it was like: Winning ugly... It all counts." Zarazúa had stepped in to face Raducanu at late notice as the lucky loser after No. 22 seed Ekaterina Alexandrova, who she had originally been drawn to face, withdrew from the tournament with illness. "I found out at like 10.30 today and for the last three days we've been planning, playing, setting up practices with similar opponents and then all of a sudden, yeah, it's a change of plan," Raducanu said of Alexandrova's withdrawal. "So it took a little bit of adjusting and finding my feet. But yeah, I just want to say thank you to everyone for the support in some crucial moments and yeah, I really enjoyed playing back." Monday's match was Raducanu's first at Wimbledon since 2022 after she missed last year's championships while recovering from operations on both wrists and an ankle. Zarazúa sought to test Raducanu's fitness by building long rallies interspersed with regular drop shots that tested the Brit's ability to get around the court. But Raducanu found form in the second set, eventually dispatching the Mexican 7-6(0), 6-3 to the delight of the home crowd in south west London. Asked about the atmosphere at Centre Court, Raducanu said: "It's incredible. I think that's just such a great buzz in the summer time, although today's a little bit cloudy, but I think the tennis, the football, the Formula One, everything, and I think that it just really uplifts [everyone], myself included. "I think it's such an amazing atmosphere to be a part of. And honestly, my motivation is just to keep coming back here and being able to keep playing and feel that buzz." 150722 Top Universities KSb3 KyAlr27tuTu9xLuQVve7s8N7nNduB7TJWm4CCY Uni1 768x547 Top 10 Universities In The World Screenshot 2022 06 10 At 103257 800x1024 Article Graphic 1 1 1024x978 Top 10 Universities In The World 2024 Edition 678x381.webp 9bf4303f0cff7db4 ?imwidth=720 Maxresdefault Maxresdefault Uni Rankings Maxresdefault Top 100 Universities In The USA Mytopschools QS World Univerisities 1019x573 Top 10 Universities In The World 2023 1024x683 5b0fb3f1a31001b8b9b964f9 Iqeb26b89381d2ead95e274c48949667c6 Historia Times Ranking 2023 Infographic University Ranking 1157 The Top 25 Colleges In 53d4a894dbff65ebded819a10cd8c26b Top Universities In The World 2023 Top 10 Ranked.webp.webp Cropped Top 10 Universities In The World 61faf2047a35903c2f1bb2f572dc8b38cf79cb0e 150917 Best Universities Forum Chart 1024x512 0309pg10a Wur 2015 2016 Top Universities By Region Large V2 Best Colleges 2014 Rankings 02 QSWUR Table Bi Graphics 25 Best Colleges In America 2015 Bi Graphics 25 Best Colleges In America 2015 1141x1800 E350f2d48d76d1be600efdbc453c737d
