Emma Raducanu recently revealed that she has been impressed with the way Carlos Alcaraz enjoys the sport and that it was one of the reasons why she keeps an eye on his matches.  She said that she also enjoys her contests in the same manner.

After her first-round win against Renata Zarazua at the 2024 Wimbledon Championships, she told the press that she was over the moon with the result and that she was going to enjoy every win at the SW19. She also praised the Spaniard for his passion for the sport.

Honestly, following Carlos, it was pretty cool to watch him play because he has the same sort of demeanor and just enjoyment of the sport. It’s just good to follow and watch. 

Emma Raducanu said at a press conference

Fans are almost always left in awe when watching Alcaraz. He not only dazzles everyone with his game but also with his celebrations after every point. He is currently in action alongside Raducanu at Wimbledon, where he is hoping to successfully defend his title.

Raducanu, on the other hand, is on a comeback path. She has put together a strong at SW19 so far, where she has reached the third round of a Grand Slam since her triumph at the 2021 US Open.

Her performance against Elise Mertens was particularly impressive, with the Briton wrapping up the 6-1, 6-2 win with ease. She will face Maria Sakkari next, who should provide a stern test for her. The two have faced each other once before, in the semifinals of the 2021 US Open, where the 21-year-old won en route to clinching the title.

The youngster remains the only British woman to win a major singles title since Virginia Wade and will be hoping to end the title drought for British women at SW19 this fortnight.
