Emma Raducanu is enoying the best time of her life currently and Boris Becker was impressed with the way the British phenom won the 2021 US Open.
The story of Emma Raducanu is a brilliant one despite it being fairly short for now. The British phenom achieved something unbelievable when she won the 2021 US Open. Many tennis legends praised the phenom and the latest is Boris Becker who said:
"What a supreme feeling: she got a personal letter from Queen Elizabeth. If that’s not a tribute, I don’t know what else there is to come. Everyone here has noticed: we have a new superstar. But now it starts, now the dance starts. You have to follow up the performance, and the benchmark is impossibly high. She’s not going to win every match for the rest of her life."
Becker then claimed she will become Dame Emma Raducanu as British tabloids have suspected:
“It’s an open secret: she will become ‘Dame Emma Raducanu’ – imagine that; it doesn’t get any better than that. Then there will be a Sir Andy Murray and a Dame Emma Raducanu – wow!”
The German tennis legend that shifted focus the change in tennis that is going on now saying:
“I think the generational change has happened. The younger generation has taken over now. We just talked about Serena Williams, for a very long time, because it was just her. Only [Leylah] Fernandez and Raducanu deserve to be the centre of attention now, and that will continue for the next few weeks. The young guns bring everything the tennis fan wants."
