    Emma Raducanu is out of Wimbledon after defeat to the qualifier Lulu Sun on Centre Court. Raducanu was bidding to reach the quarter-finals for the first time but was outpowered by her opponent , the world number 123, who won 6-2 5-7 6-2.

    The 21-year-old was hampered by physical issues and called for a medical timeout following a slip on the grass just moments after forcing a third set. Sun broke immediately and amid a barrage of winners, went on to claim the biggest win of her life to reach the last eight.

    Raducanu was the last British player in the singles. She had pulled out of the mixed doubles with Andy Murray on Saturday, therefore bringing the two-time champion’s Wimbledon career to a sudden end.

    There was another shock later on Centre Court as Coco Gauff was once again was unable to reach the Wimbledon quarter-finals and was beaten in straight sets, 6-4 6-3, by fellow American Emma Navarro

    In the men’s singles draw, No 1 seed Jannik Sinner impressively downed Ben Shelton 6-2, 6-4, 7-6 to march into the quarter-finals and he’s still on course for a semi-final showdown against reigning champion Carlos Alcaraz , who was made to work hard in a 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-5 triumph over Ugo Humbert.
