Now she faces a tougher test against Maria Sakkari in a bid to reach the fourth round at Wimbledon for only the second time in her career overall and first since the year of her unforgettable Grand Slam triumph Stateside.
Sakkari is the current world No9 and a two-time Grand Slam semi-finalist, though she has never previously been beyond the third round at SW19.
McCartney Kessler and Arantxa Rus have been no match for the Greek so far this week, though she will get a huge challenge from the hungry Raducanu.
Emma Raducanu vs Maria Sakkari start time
The start time really depends on the length of Alcaraz’s prior match, which should get underway just after 1:30pm BST.
3:30pm BST would be an early estimate for Raducanu, but as ever that is subject to change.
