Emma Raducanu speaking after her win: “I mean a lot of love for the crowd out there in Great Britain, supporting us and coming out here.
“I’m very pleased to win two points, especially here on clay. We knew how tough it was going to be.
“I was really pleased to win two points. Boults helped us to go 2-1 up. And the support on the bench to help us go out again. It’s a massive shout out, it’s not just me out there.
“Especially being a set down, I was backed up against the wall and I didn’t want to go to the doubles because they’re a very strong doubles team.
“It does feel really good. I need to shout out Ian at home who has been working with me every single day. To be able to play two matches like that back to back, it’s a testament to what I’ve been doing I’m just glad it was able to show.”
