RAD'S GLAD ...AND MAD

EMMA RADUCANU hit out at Brazilian umpire Ana Carvalho after triumphing in Nottingham in her first match on home soil for almost two years.

The 21-year-old, who missed last year's grass court season through injury, delivered an impressive return with a 6-1 6-4 victory over Japan's Ena Shibahara in the first round at the Rothesay Open.

But afterwards she took aim at the officials at a tournament which does not use Hawkeye or allow challenges for the calls which went against her.

"I feel like I was playing two-v-one on court it was insane," said Raducanu. "I would have used probably at least four challenges.
