Emma Raducanu has failed to receive a wild card for the Cincinnati Open with Katie Boulter, Jack Draper and Cameron Norrie landing favourable draws for the event – live on Sky Sports Tennis.
Raducanu reached the quarter-finals of the Mubadala Citi Open in Washington before losing to eventual champion Paolo Badosa.
The former US Open champion was relying on a main draw wild card into Cincinnati, but organisers have awarded them to Caroline Wozniacki, Bianca Andreescu, Peyton Stearns and Caroline Dolehide for the tournament which runs from August 12-19 – live on Sky Sports Tennis and Sky Sports+.
It’s now likely the 21-year-old will arrive in New York without playing in Toronto and Cincinnati.
