Emma Raducanu ruthlessly swept aside Japanese qualifier Ena Shibahara to earn her first win at the US Open since her memorable 2021 title triumph.
British number one Raducanu needed only 62 minutes to secure a 6-1 6-2 victory on the opening day of the hard-court Grand Slam in New York.
It was the quickest Grand Slam main-draw victory of her career.
