Lulu Sun upset favourite Emma Raducanu 6–2, 5–7, 6–2 in the Wimbledon round of 16 on grass on 7 July 2024. Despite entering as the clear pre-match favourite with odds of 1.17 to Sun's 5.86, Raducanu could not maintain consistency across three sets. Sun claimed the opening set decisively before Raducanu fought back to take the second in a tighter contest. However, the New Zealand player reasserted dominance in the decider to secure a notable upset and advance further in the tournament. The result marks a significant scalp for Sun at the Championships and raises questions about Raducanu's form on grass heading into the latter stages.
