"I gave my US Open earnings to mom and dad" reveals Emma Raducanu

Raducanu was happy to be back home in order to spend some time with her parents after they could nto join her in New York during her US Open run. The British player sat down with BBC breakfast to talk about what she's been up to since returning to the UK. By winning the US Open Raducanu won a sizeable amount of prize money and she explained what she did with it:

‘I will just leave that to my parents. They can take that for me. I haven’t gone shopping yet.’

Raducanu also revealed that she's a pretty standard teenager saying:

‘I’m not the most organised, so I need to work on that, and I need to work on tidying up, unpacking, because I seem to live out the suitcase even three weeks after my trip. I take my dishes after I eat, just the usual stuff. I’m honestly like every other teenager in that way.’

She also explained that the achievment hasn't fully sunk in yet saying:

‘It is sinking in a little bit more but it’s still such a whirlwind of an experience, I’ve loved every moment of it but it’s something that’s very difficult to fully comprehend. It’s funny because when I was watching [the final], it almost feels like “that’s not me who’s playing and pulling off some of those shots”, it feels like it’s someone else.’
