Behind the Scenes with Emma Raducanu (Porsche Newsroom)

In an interview before her return to the Grand Slam tournament in New York, Porsche brand ambassador Emma Raducanu talked about motivation and motorsport. A novel that is world literature. “Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable ...

In early 2022, she’s named Member of the Order of the British Empire for her service to her country and is the youngest woman to be honored in this way.

She goes on to defeat Olympic champion Belinda Bencic in the quarter final and Maria Sakkari in the semifinal and wins the tournament against Leylah Annie Fernandez 6–4 and 6–3 in the final match. Her motivation on her way up and down: “Continuous improvement and getting better and just trying to learn and experience new things.” Emma still has a lot of plans: For example, she played “It was the most high-performance car I’ve ever been in on a public road.” She would like to race again – but first tennis. In order to play in New York, she first has to fight her way through qualification and effortlessly wins her three matches. I was thrilled when Porsche won for the first time!” She has experienced the performance of an electric vehicle firsthand – in the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo. Just weeks later, she competes in the second Grand Slam tournament of her career: the US Open. Just eight days later, she’s the youngest player in ITF history to win the Nike Junior International in Liverpool, the first superlative in her budding career. She practices before school and again in the evening. “I feel like I’ve got a lot of resilience from my mom, which helps me on the tennis court. “I feel like my culture and family background have definitely played a part in who I am,” says Emma Raducanu, when we get together for the photo shoot.

EMMA RADUCANU was backed up by tennis legends after the young star came under fire for her form after winning the US Open last year.

"You face the person in front of you and I know people will want to beat me. “And at the end of the day, I feel like my days [working with commercial partners] are pretty limited. I think she’s going to stay around and win a lot more matches." Emma Raducanu is hoping to defend her US Open title, starting the tournament with a match against France's Alize Cornet this week. I’m not even doing crazy days. I need to discard any pressures there are from the outside.

Emma Raducanu v Alize Cornet: US Open tennis 2022 – live! (The Guardian)

Game-by-game report: The defending champion opens up her campaign against the world No 40. Follow the latest action with Tom Lutz.

It’s Cornet to serve and she wins the first point of the match after her opponent dumps a forehand into the net. The 19-year-old Briton has had a mixed lead-up to the tournament. Cornet is about as tough a player as you’re going to find among the unseeded ranks in this year’s tournament. Raducanu hits a forehand into the net and Cornet has the first set. A few points later, Cornet splashes a backhand long and the champ has broken at the first opportunity. Raducanu can’t get to a drop shot and Cornet holds. She has a good chance to take it to deuce shortly afterwards but misses a backhand with the court gaping wide. A backhand into the net gives the champion the game. Raducanu looks like she’s going to take the game at 40-30 but Cornet reaches to return a volley and hits a brilliant winner. At 15-0, Cornet hits a weak second serve and Raducanu dismisses it with a ripped forehand down the line: she’s occasionally showing the shots that won her the tournament last year. But with options up, she hits a forehand straight at her opponent and Cornet is able to level the game at deuce. Raducanu did play with more freedom as the set went on though, and Cornet was a little shaky herself, sending down five double faults.

I think about what I have to do. 1 Iga Swiatek in the third round at Wimbledon, No. “I guess I’m getting old, I’m getting more mature.

In her record-breaking 63rd consecutive major appearance, Alizé Cornet stole the show on Tuesday night, ending Emma Raducanu's US Open title defense in the ...

It was 3-all in the second when Cornet hit a gorgeous half-volley winner on the way to her sixth break of Raducanu’s serve. She’s appearing in her 63rd consecutive Grand Slam main draw, the longest run in Open Era history. Her ranking – which soared into the top 10 back in July – will soon plummet to outside the top 75. The US Open vaulted her into the Top 25. "My game at the net was pretty good,” Cornet said in an on-court interview. And while she eventually fell to Jessica Pegula, a Top 10 player, there were signs that – urged on by new coach Dmitry Tursunov – she was swinging freely again. She beat two Top 50 players – Sorana Cirstea and Marketa Vondrousova – and nearly cut her ranking in half. If Harriet Dart wins her second-round match against Dalma Galfi – Raducanu will be the British No.2. It was only her second major. As I said last year, I’m just going to do things my way.” “I think you guys are thinking probably more about pressure and ranking than me,” the 19-year-old from Great Britain answered crisply. I just focus on what I’m doing, my own trajectory.

Over the summer, as the US Open drew closer, Raducanu acknowledged the possibility that she could lose the 2,040 points she gained in 2021. She is a better tennis player than Raducanu at this moment in time, something that was reflected in the result. Then Raducanu pieced together her cleanest stretch of ball striking and nailed a winning backhand down the line to break for 3-1. She finally reached her first grand slam quarter-final in emotional scenes at the Australian Open and she has beaten Iga Swiatek, Simona Halep, Garbiñe Muguruza and Jelena Ostapenko in majors this year. Cornet, the world No 40, is not only one of the highest ranked players to miss out on a top 32 seeding, she is also enjoying the best grand slam year of her career. In challenging, windy conditions, Raducanu received her most brutal reality check yet as her US Open title defence ended at the first hurdle in a 6-3, 6-3 loss.

'Back to reality' - Mats Wilander not surprised by Emma Raducanu ... (Eurosport.co.uk)

Eurosport expert Mats Wilander has given his reaction to defending champion Emma Raducanu suffering a first-round defeat to Alize Cornet at the US Open.

She is also pleased to now have a "clean slate" ahead of next year. "Right now, she's sort of in between aggressive and not being really aggressive, and I think she can be aggressive and she has more confidence. In fact, I think this is a very, very important step in her career that defending this title is over and she can now focus on her tennis, and trying to get her ranking up in a normal way, rather than just rise completely to the top. "I'm very excited to see her continue and push forwards because I do think that she seems like a great person. Let's work and figure out what it is that makes her happy in terms of how she plays, and then this is how she’s going to end up playing. Or does she use her movement skills, and dial back a little bit and play with a little bit of variation? She's obviously the biggest thing that happened in British sports in a long, long, long time, for the women's side and on the men's side, too. Hopefully, she can hang on to [current coach] Dmitry Tursunov for a little longer than a few months because I think that is important too. She had a lot of confidence last year, and she is a fighter, and she plays well. "She started off well in the second set, that is when I thought she was going to turn it around. "I don't see much of a difference from Emma this year compared to last year, except she was just confident and other players were scared to play her. "It looked to me like she was playing OK," Wilander said on Eurosport.
