Raducanu Criticizes Line Calls After Wimbledon Loss

Emma Raducanu was eliminated from Wimbledon 2025 in the third round after a close match against world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, ending 7-6(6), 6-4 despite Raducanu leading in both sets. Raducanu, who had earlier beaten 2023 champion Marketa Vondrousova, criticized the new Electronic Line Calling system for making 'very wrong' calls, a concern echoed by fellow players Jack Draper and Carlos Alcaraz. Sabalenka praised Raducanu's performance and expressed belief in her return to the Top 10. Sabalenka advances to face Elise Mertens in the fourth round. Only three Top 10 seeds now remain in the women's singles draw. Raducanu's strong showing has renewed optimism about her future Grand Slam prospects.
