The women's tennis circuit still keeps on churning up new Grand Slam winners.
In fact, Britain's 18 year old No. 1 women's tennis player Emma Raducanu
dominated the US Open championships at the Flushing Meadows' Arthur Ashe
stadium in the final against Canada's 19 year old Leylah Annie Fernandez, 6-4,
6-3 to clinch her first Grand Slam title and go on to complete a fairy tale win
without dropping a single set in the entire tournament. In the process, Emma
created an upset in the tournament which featured many highly fancied players.
For now, a certain Miss Emma Raducanu is the new darling pretty of the
glamorous tennis world. She became the first British women's tennis player to
win a major title since Virginia Wade won Wimbledon in 1977. In recent times,
she joined the ranks of Iga Swiatek from Poland who won the French Open title
last year having gone through the qualification rounds, a feat that makes it
all the more creditable. Emma thus becomes the latest women's sensation of the
competitive tennis world.
