British professional and 2021 US Open champion, featuring her ranking, coach and title facts.
Who is Raducanu
Emma Raducanu turned professional in 2018, and within two years she had done something no qualifier had achieved at a Grand Slam: she finished the 2021 US Open holding the trophy. That same year brought a BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award and a WTA Newcomer of the Year honour, then a Member of the Order of the British Empire just later on. Now part of the WTA with Francisco Roig in her corner, she owns a tour-level title, plays a two-handed backhand and stands inside the world's top seventy. Her career high is the top ten. At 23 she has time, but the year ahead asks for consistency, fitness and match toughness — answers only the court can give.
