Emma Raducanu, are we ready ?

[Arrowfoot]

I am praying that she wins. We need something to uplift us after nearly 2 years of pandemic uncertainty.

 

[Beebo]

It’s great news after the well published panic attack she had a Wimbledon. ( I’m looking at you Piers Morgan)
There is no pressure on her and she’s playing another teenager in the final.

Best of luck to her

Well done, good luck.

 

[newfhouse]

There is no pressure on her

You sure? Win or lose, the media will change her life beyond her control.

 

[figbat]

She’s come through the qualifying rounds and hasn’t dropped a set yet. Incredible and uplifting.

 

[Joey Shabadoo]

Good for her. Could be a great final as her opponent has beaten the number 2, 3 and 5 players to get there.

Fun fact - the final is on the 20th anniversary of 9/11. Neither player was alive at the time.

 

[Chromatic]

That's Sports Personality of the Year sewn up this year I reckon.

 

[Brandane]

Quite incredible what she has done already. Now into the final against another teenager who is "only" ranked 73 in the world. If she continues to play as she has been doing, she has every chance of winning this. C'mon EMMA!!

Are we ready?
Do we have a SPORTS forum ready?
Has Arrowfoot noticed it in his 10 years on CycleChat?

That's Sports Personality of the Year sewn up this year I reckon.

She is only a few months too old to be Young Sports Personality of the Year. Entry requirements are to be 17 or younger on 1st January of that year, and Emma turns 19 in November.

I'm just waiting for the press to refer to her as, "English teenager Emma Raducanu ..."
If she's ever involved in a scandal then no doubt she will become just British again.

she’s half Romanian, half Chinese, born in Canada and only came to UK aged 2.
So many options to choose from.
