Hobart International: Emma Raducanu delayed by rain against Camila Osorio

Britain’s Emma Raducanu will have to return to the court on Wednesday after her first-round match against Camila Osorio at the Hobart International was suspended because of rain.

Raducanu, bidding for her first win of the 2026 season, led the Colombian 6-3 2-4 when play was suspended.

It was a back-and-forth match, with both players battling the blustery conditions and Osorio struggling with a persistent cough.

The first three games of the first set went against serve before Raducanu rallied, taking the opener in just 45 minutes against her wildcard opponent.

World number 82 Osorio found another gear in the second set, hitting four winners in the opening game and using her sliced backhand drop shots to break the Raducanu serve.

After a 30-minute break, the players returned to court and managed just two points before the heavy rain returned.

Raducanu, who had her off-season disrupted by a foot injury, is playing in her final tournament before the Australian Open begins on Sunday.

Poland’s Magdalena Frech, who was a comfortable 6-4 6-0 winner over France’s Elsa Jacquemot earlier today, awaits either Raducanu or Osorio in the quarter-finals.
