It was another dominant showing from Raducanu in the second set, as she immediately broke Kostyuk and raced to a 4-0 lead.

Kostyuk kept her hopes alive as she held serve the following game and nudged ahead, 30-0, in the next on a netted forehand by Raducanu.

Raducanu slapped a drop shot into the net once more to take the score to deuce but she made up for it with a forehand down-the-line winner to gain the advantage and eventually held serve to go up, 5-1.

Raducanu looked to break Kostyuk again to seal the match but wasted two match points as she erred on her forehand twice. But the Ukrainian double faulted and sent her forehand wide to hand the victory to Raducanu.

The Brit dropped her racket, balled her fists and flashed a huge grin.

Raducanu dished out just five errors in the entire match. She produced 14 winners and won 62 points, 27 more than her opponent.
