Ruse briefly broke back, but the Brit followed up by holding her serve two games later to claim the first set. The pair held their serves in the following two games before Radacanu broke again to ease into a 5-1 lead. 19, playing on Sunday against her friend Ruse, held her serve in the opening game and then forced Ruse into a long service game, saving two game points before hitting a winner into the corner and then driving her opponent into an error to take a 2-0 lead. She has since competed in three events, the most recent in Linz, Austria, where she was beaten in the first round against China's Xinyu Wang.
