Tuesday's first-round match at the Abu Dhabi Open featured two one-time Grand Slam winners who have battled injuries against each other. Emma Raducanu and Marketa Vondrousova faced off for the third time on tour.

Emma Raducanu suffered her third consecutive defeat as she crashed out in the first round of the Abu Dhabi Open. It was a meeting of the Grand Slam champions as the British No. 1 faced 2023 Wimbledon winner Marketa Vondrousova, who is continuing her comeback from injuries.

Emma Raducanu suffered a third straight defeat in the opening round of the Abu Dhabi Open. The 22-year-old was beaten 6-3 6-4 by former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova to add to her losses to Iga Swiatek in the third round of the Australian Open and to Cristina Bucsa in Singapore last week.
