22 -year -old Britain Emma Redukanu said she “really feels dizzy” during the loss of her narrow quarterfinal to World No. 4 Jessica Pegula at the Miami Open on Wednesday.
Despite the need for medical treatment, Redukanu level the match before winning the US Pegula 6-4, 6-7 (3-7), 6–2.
“I was really dizzy,” Redukanu told Tennisone.
“I was feeling unconscious. It was very moist, and we were a long wait, so perhaps it was just an accumulation. (There were) just with physical points -with long rallies and heavy conditions. I don’t know how I re -gathered in that second set, but in the third I definitely struggled a little bit.”
While she was feeling the brunt of the circumstances, World No. 60 played some of her best tennis since becoming a teenage grand slam champion at the 2021 US Open.
Before calling the doctor to see the doctor, he took a 5–2 lead in the eighth game and set four in the eighth game. He was taken his blood pressure and he was given ice towels to cool before starting it.
But she could not see the job because Pegula displayed why she is one of the most consistent contestants on the WTA tour.
Pegula credited the performance of Redukanu.
“It was difficult. I played a good first set, let the other go down slightly, it got back, went above 2–0 in the tiebreak, but it flipped in a way.

“He started moving the ball really well, doing good service … sometimes it happens just, but I just wanted to really strong, really quick, and just wanted to jump on it and don’t want to keep the third set very close.”
Despite her disadvantage to Pegula, Redukanu showed that she could still compete with the world’s best.
In Miami, top -20 opponents Emma Navaro and Amanda Anisimova had an eye -catching victory. She will also take great satisfaction from knowing that she will return to the top 50 of the WTA rankings next week.
