Fit-again Emma Raducanu beats Jule Niemeier 6-4, 6-4Katie Boulter closes out 2-0 win against Germany
It has been seven months since Emma Raducanu led Great Britain to the Billie Jean King Cup Finals. So much has happened since then, from her gradual rise back up the rankings to further frustrating injuries, and she arrived in Malaga this week at a different point in her development. As she stepped up to the baseline on Friday evening, it was unclear how rusty she would be after a two-month absence.
Two hours later, Raducanu departed the court having handled the pressure in her stride, setting the tone for her team with a solid, professional opening performance as Britain advanced to the quarter-finals of the Billie Jean King Cup with a 2-0 win over Germany.
