She knows this place better than anyone," Rybakina prepares for her match against Raducanu

Elena Rybakina and Emma Raducanu will compete for a spot in the US Open round of 16.

When asked about the Brit, with whom she recently played doubles in Washington, Rybakina was cautious: "We don't play doubles together often, but sometimes, especially early in the season, it's nice to play.

She simply asked me if I wanted to play, and that's how we started playing together.

We played against each other once a long time ago, and I think she's playing really well now and is a tough opponent. She really knows this place better than anyone.

I'm looking forward to this match. I know I need to improve a bit from today and try to do my best, and I hope to win this match.
