Emma Raducanu

What fascinates me about Emma Raducanu is not the fairytale of 2021 but everything after it. Winning the US Open as a teenager, the first British woman to take a major since Virginia Wade in 1977, would have been a career peak for most players; for her it became a weight she has carried publicly ever since. I admire how she keeps rebuilding her game under scrutiny few athletes ever face. The BBC award and the MBE arrived almost instantly, but I believe her real story, the resilient and self-authored one, is still being written, and I am watching for it.
