Murray opined that the lighter balls at Flushing Meadows would favor the teenager. "The balls they use over here help a lot, they are a lot lighter, the women's ball. That allows her to get more on her shots, on her serves, she seems like she enjoyed the conditions last week. I'd imagine with it being quick here in New York she will enjoy them. I'd expect her to play well next week," he said. Murray also said that he was impressed by Raducanu's recent performances in Cincinnati against Serena Williams and Jessica Pegula. "I think she played really well last week. I watched a couple of her matches," he said. "I saw most of the match against Serena [Williams] and then the one against Jessica Pegula." "Even though she lost that one she is playing much better," he added.US Open Tennis@usopenWelcome back, @EmmaRaducanu 2341132Welcome back, @EmmaRaducanu https://t.co/LM1i14aaIG Emma Raducanu will begin her title defense at the US Open against French veteran Alize Cornet on Tuesday.
