Emma Raducanu suffered a quick exit to Amanda Anisimova in Indian Wells, losing a third-round clash in 52 minutes. <\/p>\n

The British star lost 6-1 6-1 to the in-form two-times major finalist American.<\/p>\n

Anisimova reached the Wimbledon and US Open finals last year and is the world No 6 and the level of her play was on full show against Raducanu.<\/p>\n

After her split from coach Francisco Roig earlier this year, Raducanu had reunited with Mark Petchey on a day-to-day basis during this tournament. While she had played well in her opening game, when she dispatched Anastasia Zakharova in straight sets, Raducanu struggled with Anisimova.<\/p>\n

The American had Raducanu under pressure from the start as she broke the Briton’s serve in the very first game.<\/p>\n

With a double break Anisimova led 4-1 in quick time and didn’t let Raducanu win another game in the set.<\/p>\n

She closed out the first set with another break and to compound Raducanu’s difficulties Anisimova broke again at the first opportunity in the second set.<\/p>\n

Anisimova wrong-footed Raducanu with a lovely drop shot as she exerted full control. Raducanu managed to claim a game but facing an ominous 4-1 deficit again in the second set, the Briton couldn’t unearth a response.<\/p>\n

Raducanu suffered another break, which allowed Anisimova to serve out the match.<\/p>\n

She finished off a straightforward, clinical victory over the Briton in just 52 minutes.<\/p>\n
