Emma Raducanu has issued a public appeal for a top coach to join her team after losing her first match since her US Open triumph to the world No 100 Aliaksandra Sasnovich. The British No 1 became the first qualifier in history to win a Grand Slam without even dropping a set.

Emma Raducanu was unable to repeat her US Open heroics when she returned to court at the BNP Paribas Open. The 18-year-old arrived as the 17th seed in Indian Wells, receiving a first-round bye, but fell to world No 100 Aliaksandra Sasnovich in straight sets.

It has been 27 days since the 18-year-old stunned the world to become the queen of New York in a fairytale story, but she could not reproduce that level in the Californian desert, going down 6-2 6-4 to Belarussian Aliaksandra Sasnovich.
