Stardom of Emma Raducanu
Things are not going well for Emma Raducanu. Finally, in Stuttgart, the future of the tennis player who threw in the towel in the first round is a matter of curiosity. The British racket, which announced its name for the first time at the 2021 Wimbledon, had participated in the tournament with a Wild Card. Raducanu, who was ranked 338th in the world at that time and played her first match at the professional level, had managed to reach the last 16 of the tournament.
The young athlete subsequently reached the 150th stage and qualified for the U.S. Open in the qualifying rounds. Raducanu, who eliminated her opponents here, passed Leylah Fernandez in the final and reached the trophy in New York.
The British racket thus achieved the feat of becoming the first tennis player to win a Grand Slam tournament by coming from the qualifiers. However, Raducanu’s career went into decline after her US Open victory. After New York, the young tennis player, who was eliminated in the first round of Indian Wells, could not give what was expected in other tournaments. The future of Raducanu, whose coach changes also did not benefit, remains unclear. The best achievement of the British racket this year is the last 16 round.

Born in Canada in 2002, Emma Raducanu moved to the UK at the age of 2 with her parents who worked in the financial world.

Raducanu, who is engaged in various activities from ballet to horse riding, swimming to skiing, basketball to motocross races during off-school hours, admits that this is sometimes “too challenging”, but he believes that her family contributed to developing a resilient mentality at an early age.
