Katie Boulter should earn herself a ranking of world No 50 through her performances in New York, despite an underwhelming defeat in the US Open third round to American Peyton Stearns.
This summer she has established herself as British No 1, and although she lost 6-4, 6-3 to the former American college standout she will be miles ahead of Emma Raducanu by the time the former New York champion makes her comeback.
Raducanu is said to be making good progress in her recovery, and has been working with a physical trainer while on a trip to see family in China, where she has been unable to visit since the Covid pandemic.
