Emma Raducanu vs Linda Noskova preview
Reigning US Open champion Emma Raducanu will launch her bid for a second Grand Slam title against last year's junior champion Linda Noskova at the French Open.
The Brit struggled for form and consistency in the months following her breakthrough win in New York, but seems to have finally built a semblance of rhythm with the tour moving to clay.
The 19-year-old did a commendable job reaching the quarterfinals in Stuttgart and the Round of 16 in Madrid.
However, a back injury stalled her progress, forcing her to retire midway through her first-round face-off against Bianca Andreescu in Rome.
Having fully recovered, the World No. 12 will be looking forward to her Roland Garros debut.
Linda Noskova, meanwhile, had a dream run to the girls' singles title at the French Open last year.
The Czech backed it up by winning three rounds of qualifying this year to confirm her main draw debut at the claycourt Major. She is set to become the youngest Czech player to compete at a Grand Slam since Nicole Vaidisova at the 2006 US Open.
The World No. 185 also has five ITF titles to her credit, the latest of which came at Croissy-Beauborg in France last month.

Emma Raducanu vs Linda Noskova prediction
This match will be a test of Raducanu's fitness. If she is fully fit, she shouldn't have much trouble coming through this contest.
The 19-year-old made giant strides on clay in a short span of time. Her effortless hitting and fluid movement will come in handy against a highly inexperienced opponent.
That said, Noskova comes into this match with three wins under her belt at Roland Garros and will have a better idea of the conditions than Raducanu. The 17-year-old Czech certainly does have the ability to put the US Open champion in a spot of bother, but the 12th seed should be able to find solutions and march into the second round.
Prediction: Raducanu to win in straight sets.
