Despite the interruption, Raducanu battled 27-year-old Belarusian Sabalenka point for point, taking the match to a third-set tiebreak. In the end, she fell just short, but the crowd gave her a standing ovation, applauding her grit and composure.

British tennis pro Emma Raducanu was shut down by an umpire after complaining about a crying child in the stands. In a clip shared via ESPN’s TikTok account on Tuesday, August 12, Raducanu, 22, was seen asking the umpire during her Cincinnati Open round of 32 match against World No.

But the tensest moment of the match may have been when a crying baby interrupted Raducanu’s serve in the final set. The former U.S. Open champion walked away from her toss and told the chair umpire, “It’s been like 10 minutes.”
