Emma Raducanu vs Jessica Pegula LIVE: Miami Open latest score and updates
Emma Raducanu is through to her first-ever WTA 1000 quarter-final at the Miami Open, the second half of the famous 'Sunshine Double'.
The British No 2 has dispatched two Americans and two seeds - eighth seed Emma Navarro in the second round and 17th seed Amanda Anisimova in the last-16 - en route to her quarter-final.
Up next is another seeded American, fourth seed and world No 4 Jessica Pegula, twice a semi-finalist in Florida.
Raducanu has been playing without a coach in Miami after ending a trial with Vladimir Platenik and has instead had mentors Jane O'Donoghue and Mark Petchey in her box.
The 22-year-old has said taking a relaxed approach at the tournament with her team has allowed her to 'express' herself on court and play in an 'authentic' way - with brilliant results so far.

Emma Raducanu moves on from Dubai incident but looks to improve 'everything' in her game
Raducanu's run in Miami has been all the more impressive given what immediately preceded it: a well-documented ordeal with a stalker, who followed her across multiple tournaments in Asia before being given a restraining order.
She then lost her first match after that ordeal came to light, in Indian Wells, the last tournament she played before coming to Florida.

National Biography adds John Dawes and Michael Peckham
The Gwent pair are among 238 people added to the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography after they died in 2021. Dawes is the only man to have led the British and Irish Lions to a series victory in New Zealand after being skipper on the 1971 tour. The Abercarn-born centre won 22 caps for Wales after his debut in 1964 and was captain for the Grand Slam triumph in 1971 before heading off to face the All Blacks. Dawes became national coach and won the Five Nations title four times, two of them Grand Slams, and won four triple crowns. He coached the Lions in New Zealand in 1977. He played for Newbridge and went on to become a London Welsh captain and coach. Panteg-born Peckham was the son of a railway locomotive fireman and won a scholarship from Monmouth Grammar School to Cambridge. That started a career as a distinguished oncologist whose multidisciplinary treatment programmes improved survival rates and led to the wider acceptance of holistic care models for cancer patients. A strong believer in the application of evidence-based medicine, he was the first NHS director of research and development. The Oxford DNB is a national record of people who have shaped British history. From June 2025, the dictionary includes biographies of more than 63,000 individuals, written by more than 14,000 contributors, and with more than 12,000 portrait images. Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, is included in the new edition with Queen Elizabeth II's entry to be published next year.

BBC is showing Bargain Hunt and Homes Under the Hammer repeats instead of Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter's doubles match... again
The BBC has been criticised for showing two-year-old repeats of Bargain Hunt and Homes Under the Hammer instead of Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter 's doubles match at Queen's. The British tennis pair played their quarter-final of the Queen's Club Championships earlier today, but the footage was not even available on the BBC website for the majority of the match. It comes after the corporation also failed to broadcast the British duo's opening round win against Wu Fang-hsien and Jiang Xinyu on Monday. When their latest match began at noon today, BBC One had opted to show a two-year-old episodes of Homes Under The Hammer and Bargain Hunt, The Telegraph reported. Meanwhile BBC Two was showing Politics Live, providing reaction to the Government's spending review. Coverage for Raducanu and Boulkter's match eventually became available on the iPlayer deep into the second set. With just enough time for viewers to see the British pair lose in straight sets 6-2, 7-5. On Monday, the BBC had showed live coverage of British number 3 Sonay Kartal's win in the singles against Daria Kasatkina instead of the British pair's first round match. Kartal's match was also available on iPlayer with highlights of another match involving Brazilian player Beatriz Haddad Maia as she defeated Czech player Petra Kvitova. The Lawn Tennis Association, which hosts Queen's in Eastbourne, could not move the game to the main arena due to contractual obligations made with the Women's Tennis Association. The WTA mandates that four single matches are played on Centre Court each day, meaning there is no room for doubles matches to be played despite interest in the British pair. Their opening match was only featured briefly as part of the coverage on BBC Two before it returned to coverage of Kartal's match. The BBC previously told The Telegraph after the first round match: 'Our TV coverage at Queens covers one court with one feed and we were broadcasting GB's [Great Britain] Sonay Kartal's Centre Court singles match on BBC Two. 'We provided regular updates on Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter's doubles match on BBC Two and the BBC Sport website where fans can enjoy all the stories that define this historic tournament.'
