Emma Raducanu vs Barbora Krejcikova live: Latest score and updates from Korea Open

Emma Raducanu overcame the frustration of lengthy weather-related delays to beat Jaqueline Cristian in the opening round of the Korea Open.

But Raducanu and Romanian Cristian were finally able to take to the court and it was the British No 1 who came out on top 6-3 6-4 after a tussle lasting two hours and two minutes.

The match will be shown live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Tennis.

Coverage begins at 11.30am.

The match has been scheduled last on Centre Court on Thursday 18 September, with a not before time of 11:30am (UK).

However, the Korea Open schedule has been disrupted by rain so far.

This is Raducanu and Krejcikova’s first meeting and the winner could face top seed Iga Swiatek in the quarter-finals, with the World No. 2 facing Sorana Cirstea earlier in the day.

Raducanu’s match against Krejcikova will come as Great Britain take on Japan in the Billie Jean King Cup Finals in China, with captain Anne Keothavong calling her absence “disappointing”.

But Raducanu is attempting to improve her ranking and a victory over Krejcikova would ensure she defends her quarter-final points from last year’s tournament.

It will be a tough test, however, with Krejcikova putting a tough year of injuries behind her by finding form and reaching the US Open quarter-finals earlier this month.

Emma Raducanu is back in action today as she takes on Barbora Krejcikova at the Korea Open.

Raducanu had a long wait to start her first round match against Jaqueline Cristian after rain delayed the meeting from Tuesday to Wednesday.

The Brit pulled off a straight set win but now has a tough second round tie against former Wimbledon champion Krejcikova.

This match is scheduled last on Centre Court with the action due to begin around midday in the UK.

We’ll have all the build-up and live action so stick around to see if Raducanu can make it into the quarter-finals.
