Emma Raducanu says she wants to play more matches before Grand Slam tournaments after losing to Sofia Kenin in the US Open first round.
Britain's Raducanu, who lost 6-1 3-6 6-4, was searching for her first victory in New York since unexpectedly winning the title in 2021 as a teenage qualifier.
She fell in the first round in 2022 and missed last year's tournament as she recovered from wrist and ankle surgery.
Raducanu played just one tournament between Wimbledon in July and the US Open, reaching the quarter-finals in Washington earlier this month.
The 21-year-old fought back tears in a news conference after her loss to fellow Grand Slam champion Kenin and said she felt "sad" and "down".
