Title: The Emma Raducanu Thread
Post by: Slim on August 18, 2022, 04:31:04 PM
Straight off the back of her resounding victory against Serena Williams, Emma demolished the former World Number 1 Victoria Azarenka 6-0 6-2 in Cincinnati.

Could be the British tennis legend is finding her feet again at last?

Some strong positives to take from Cincinnati - Emma put up strong resistance in her defeat and was only narrowly beaten by Jessica Pegula.

The British ace will face Alize Cornet in the first round of her US Open title defence on Tuesday.

The body of the article is paywalled, but the headline pretty much says it all. That winning serve at Flushing Meadows turned out to be very lucrative.

She could make as much on 'Only Fans'. She'd pick up less injuries.....possibly

Yeah that was a really shitty thing to do to Andy Murray. Glad she lost.

I can't understand this point of view, she's an elite singles player and the Andy Murray gig was a sideshow. A favour, even. Of course she was right to withdraw if she had a concern about a wrist.

Strong progress, hopefully we'll see more of the same in the US Open.
