Britain’s tennis star Emma Raducanu showed the fans highlights
from her 21st birthday celebrations. In a video that appeared on
social media platform X—previously known as Twitter—the Toronto-born can be
seen celebrating her 21st birthday.
Raducanu, who uploaded this video first on her official
Instagram account, posted a comment as well where she stated: “Turned 21 with
the best thank you so much for all the sweet wishes. regardless of a
challenging year there’s a lot to be grateful for. looking forward to the next
chapter.”
The former world number 10 is currently spending a lengthy injury
layoff which is why she ended up missing three out of the four Grand Slams this
year. She only played in the Australian Open where she was knocked out after
losing the second-round tie to America’s Coco Gauff in straight sets with a
score of 6-3, 7-6.
Raducanu broke onto the scene in 2021 when she lifted the US
Open title after beating Leylah Fernandez in the final in straight sets with a
score of 6-4, 6-3.
The victory in the city of New York was even more special
for Raducanu who lifted the title despite starting the competition from the
qualifying round.

- FYI: The term 'snub' is a much overused verb by writers of sensationalist rags. [SNUB: rebuff, ignore, or spurn disdainfully]. That is not the definition of what is going on with frequent withdrawals from tournaments.
mandoist16-09-2024 - No offence, Mr. Lloyd, but where have you been the past two years?? How long have you been a tennis fan? This 'article' may be informative for newbies or fair-weather tennis observers but the majority of fans know the root of the multiple issues within WTA. The #1 issue being the subject of health & well-being which has been (or has attempted to be) addressed with the WTA Elitist council members last season. WTA was extremely dismissive of players' concerns and opposed to such a meeting. Eventually giving-in due to publicity and allowed selective players only -- no rep's, no medical personnel, and no team members. The meeting was a farce as WTA soon after that released an even more hectic schedule... with mandatory tourneys! Guess they weren't taking notes?? BTW: There is a lot missing from this piece concerning "withdrawals". No writer has yet taken the jump to get behind the scenes and dig at the problems -- obvious organizational problems. IMO, the top two issues are WTA's lack of proper attention to health & well-being of its Money-Makers; and Financial Greed. Tip to Mr. Lloyd: there is no "snubbing" when these players withdraw. These women have to take such measures as withdrawing from a tourney, and occasional time-off from the circuit, to protect themselves -- because WTA refuses to take any measures at all (although not allowing matches until sunrise is a start). Surely you can do better than point fingers at players. The finger-pointing should be directed entirely at WTA (and ATP). Be a true journalist, Mr. Lloyd, and research them!!mandoist16-09-2024
- Uh-oh.... Now Raducanu is being forced to compete! Let's see who withdraws next... I wonder??mandoist15-09-2024
