Emma Raducanu played probably her best level of tennis of late to beat world No. 13 Beatriz Haddad Maia 6-1, 2-6, 6-4 and move into the fourth round at Indian Wells 2023 on Monday. The unseeded Raducanu thus clinched her biggest win by ranking since her historic 2021 US Open triumph, causing great excitement in the tennis fan community.Raducanu has now won three matches in a row, for just the second time since winning the US Open as an 18-year-old qualifier. Earlier this week, she beat Danka Kovinic and Magda Linette, both in straight sets.Courtesy of the win against Haddad Maia, Raducanu also reached the Round of 16 at a WTA 1000 event for the first time in her career, where she will face either Iga Swiatek or Bianca Andreescu, in what promises to be a thriller either way.As the Briton superstar showcased some of her best form, particularly in a highly competitive deciding set against Haddad Maia, many fans were left in awe, opining that Raducanu might just be back to her very best. A few others also defended her from the criticism she has received from naysayers of late.Here's how fans on Twitter reacted to Emma Raducanu's latest win at Indian Wells:Ella | ❤️ Tennis | Caspanos Aliathiem@tennis_poetryEmma 3 match win streak we've prayed for days like this 8Emma 3 match win streak we've prayed for days like this 💜Danny | British Flop enjoyer@EmmagoatcanuEmma Raducanu the US Open winner is back.That might just be the win of her career 18Emma Raducanu the US Open winner is back.That might just be the win of her career 😍Vansh@vanshv2kProbably the most impressive match Emma Raducanu has won since the U.S. Open.
