Emma Raducanu’s rise to the top is nothing short of sensational. After all, how many players are there in the world who can win a Grand Slam title without dropping a single set in the entire tournament after battling through the qualifiers at years of age.
However, after the US Open title win, Emma hasn’t been able to perform as per expectations. First, she was knocked out of the Indian Wells Open after losing in the opening round to Aliaksandra Sasnovich, and post that, she was unable to perform as per expectations in the Transylvania Open as well.
‘Oh my god, how did you get these’: Emma gets emotional after receiving a special gift from Transylvania Open organizers
Although Emma started off nicely in the Transylvania Open and won her first two matches, she was comprehensively beaten by Marta Kostyuk in the quarter-final clash. The loss left Emma dejected, but a beautiful gesture from the Transylvania Open organizers brought the ever so beautiful smile back on her face.
The organizers gifted her a set of rare, unseen pictures of little Emma battling hard on the court in Romania. As it turns out, the Brit actually played a tournament in Romania back in 2010, when she was just 7 years old. Looking at the pictures, Emma got really emotional.
“Oh my god, how did you get these,” Emma said after receiving the wonderful gift. Although couldn’t deliver her best in the Transylvania Open, it would be fair to say that she deserves some breathing after all the ups and downs she had in the last few months. Emma will next feature in the Linz Open.
