28 h. ago Wimbledon hands Emma Raducanu tough draw after British teenager Xu

Vondrousova likely second-round opponent, then SabalenkaJack Draper faces world No 38 Sebastián BáezIf Emma Raducanu is going to make it through to the second week of Wimbledon for the second time in her career then she’s going to have do it the hard way, with the former champion Marketa Vondrousova and the world No 1, Aryna Sabalenka, blocking her path to a place in week two.With 23 British players in the two singles draws – the most since 1984 – an all-British first-round match was always a high probability and Raducanu finds herself up against the Welsh teenager Mimi Xu in round one.

The United States struggled in friendlies but went on to win all three of its Gold Cup group games. On Sunday against Costa Rica, they face their biggest test yet.For as much as the Gold Cup gets denigrated, it’s a much tougher tournament than it might appear. The ongoing tournament is the 11th edition in the last two decades, and this year’s US are just the 10th team to make it through three group matches unscathed (Panama became the 11th on Tuesday).US manager Mauricio Pochettino has to be pleased with his team’s performance. After rough showings in the pre-tournament friendly matches, a 5-0 win over Trinidad and Tobago was cathartic, while a 1-0 win over Saudi Arabia and a 2-1 victory against Haiti also showed that the US are trying to make winning a habit as their manager has asked.
