Emma Raducanu had a chance to spend some time with the Duchess of Cambridge and the British player was quite awestruck by the royal.
After Raducanu's win in the US Open semifinal, avid tennis fans the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince William, and Kate Middleton, sent the British starlet a good luck message through Twitter. In a recent interview with People Magazine, Raducanu revealed she is full of admiration and adoration for the Duchess of Cambridge due to her general attitude and charity work.
She said:
"I think the Duchess is such a great inspiration, just with how she handles everything and how she does so much good work for charities. She’s a real inspiration to the whole country.”
Following her outstanding US Open victory, the Duchess of Cambridge and Raducanu took to the court for a doubles match in which the tennis star was impressed with the Royal’s ‘impressive forehand’.
She remembered:
“It was a pretty surreal experience to be playing tennis with the Duchess. It was kind of crazy, but she was really down to earth and normal. So I found it a really cool experience.”
Raducanu is currently in self-isolation after testing positive for the Coronavirus.
