    I was expecting it would be Dame Emma this morning as the Brits like dishing out those honours. 😉

            Sounds like a really balanced girl. Studying uni by correspondence, loves her motorsport, apparently looking forward to a visit to Wall Street while in NYC

                Keeping balanced will be a challenge, but she seems to have a good, experienced team around her to help with that.

                  Yep. Not a huge tennis fan, but it was a joy to watch them. Both reminded me of the likes of Nadal, Federer etc. Doing their talking on the court and acting with grace and good friends off it.

                      What a story

                      Qualifier to Champion

                      Call it The Fairytale of New York. 3 months ago she was an A Level student. Never won a WTA tounament before. Only her second major tournament. Never played a top ten player before. Had to go through qualifying. Said her goal at the start of qualifying was to win enough money to replace her lost Air Pods. 4,000-1 outsider. Won the US Open without dropping a set. Last person to do that was Serena Williams in 2014. Unbelievable.

                      Much better story than that Wimbledon film they made about Peter Holt.

                        Amazingly Raducanu could win the US Open next year and yet lose ranking points. This year she got 50 points for getting through US Open Qualifying, then 2000 points for winning the US Open. Next year there will only be the 2000 points for winning the tournament available to her.

                          Watching the mens final and the domestic racquet violence it would be nice to see the roles reversed and a racquet leap up and pound Novak Djokovic into the dirt. He's the one making those tired, lazy mistakes, leave the graphene Head out of it..

                          Or maybe I'm just jealous I can't break half a k on a whim..

                            The Joker is looking outclassed and frustrated at the moment. Medvedev is playing really well.

                                Sport at its best. Djokovic always wins the 5th set so will it go that far?

                                  Not looking good for Djoker right now. Down 2 sets and a break

                                    Djoker looking totally out of sorts. Not playing well and not getting angry either. I wonder if he's injured? Certainly don't want to take away from Medvedev who is playing great

                                      Amazing. Double fault on match point. Mental pressure of facing Djokovic.
