Emma Raducanu, whose mother is Chinese, whipping out some Mandarin for the fans. Her star power potential has no limits
After making history by capturing her maiden Grand Slam title as a qualifier at the 2021 US Open, British teenager Emma Raducanu will undoubtedly see a rise in popularity as fans are eager to learn more about the superstar.
Born to a Romanian father and Chinese mother, her family emigrated to England from Toronto when she was two years of age. Little was known about the 18-year old prior to her emergence at this year's Wimbledon, where she reached the fourth round.
However, following her victory over Leylah Fernandez at the US Open final, Raducanu has found herself being shuffled from the tennis courts to the TV circuit, as everyone wants to learn more about the new World No.23.
In an interview during her Cinderella US Open run, Raducanu displayed her command of Mandarin as she greeted her Chinese fans.

- I heartily disagree with Stubbs here. I mean c'mon! The whole idea of giving out wildcards is to give new & up-coming players a chance at getting as much circuit match-practice under their belts as possible. And this is a HUGE must and opportunity for these new kids on the block. Why curtail opportunities for these newbies in favour of stalwart monopoly?? That just isn't fair. At least give these lesser known players a chance to become more familiar at playing in bigger tournaments & give them also a chance of getting the crowds behind these underdogs.
