Top-seeded Simona Halep cruised into the semifinals of the Transylvania Open on Friday, but U.S. Open champion Emma Raducanu lost to a fellow teenager in less than an hour.

Emma Raducanu suffered a 6-2 6-1 quarter-final defeat at the hands of fellow teenager Marta Kostyuk, ending her hopes of a title at the Transylvania Open.

Emma Raducanu revealed she has yet to see the US Open trophy she held aloft at Flushing Meadows because it has been shipped directly to the National Tennis Centre as a "token of appreciation" from the teenager.
