Emma Raducanu fell short of a dream **** le on home soil after she was defeated 6-0, 7-6 (6) by Croatian lucky loser Donna Vekic at the HSBC Championships in London.
The British No 1 was swiftly beaten in the first set but saved three championship points in the second on the way to a tiebreak, where she saved another and came agonisingly close to taking it to a deciding set.
Rain earlier in the tournament resulted in Raducanu having to power through a two-match day on Saturday, beating Kamilla Rakhimova then American Iva Jovic to reach the first grass-court and third tour-level final of her career.
It meant the Briton had spent two hours and 19 minutes more on court the previous day than her opponent – who played just one match, a swift one-hour, six-minute victory over British No 3 Katie Boulter.
Raducanu was looking for her first trophy since her stunning win as a qualifier at the 2021 US Open, and brought up two set points in the 10th game.

Serena Williams began her tennis comeback at age 44 on Tuesday with a doubles victory in Queens Club. Williams and 19-year-old Victoria Mboko captured a 7-6, 6-2 victory over Nicole Melichar-Martinez and Erin Routliffe, their third-seeded opponents at the HSBC Championships.
This was Williams' first match since the 2022 US Open. She has won 23 majors, including seven Australian Opens, 3 French, 7 Wimbledon, and 6 US Open ****** les.
Williams has yet to say whether this return to the court will lead to playing singles.

In every major technology cycle, there comes a moment when the numbers stop looking like projections and start looking like history being made in real time. Broadcom (AVGO) may be the king of the moment.
HSBC raised its price target on Broadcom, maintaining its Buy rating, as the firm dramatically revised its estimates for the company's custom AI chip business upward ahead of second-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings.
AVGO is up 39.43% year-to-date and 95.20% over the past year, according to Yahoo Finance, with the stock trading at fresh all-time highs around $488.
The core of HSBC's revision is a specific claim about where Broadcom's ASIC revenue is heading — and the answer is a number that reframes the entire AI infrastructure investment thesis.
