# Tennis: World number two Iga Swiatek enjoyed a victorious debut at the Wuhan Open on a scorching day that saw Emma Raducanu and Jelena Ostapenko both retire from their matches. Swiatek, who had an opening-round bye, eased past the Czech Republic’s Marie Bouzkova 6-1, 6-1. After her win, Swiatek called on organisers to take player safety into account when scheduling matches on the outside courts, where there is no roof that can be closed to control the temperature.
