The young British star returned to his present and the expectations that surround him after his conquest last year. She says she is not afraid of losing her place at the top of the rankings.
Emma Raducanu faces her biggest challenge of the year at the US Open. His victory at the 2021 US Open now puts him in a week where he will have to defend 2,000 of the 2,742 points he has in the standings. A pressure that does not take away his peace of mind.
“I’ve lost count of the times I’ve been asked about pressure. I wouldn’t mind losing 2000 points, I’d start fresh one more time. I know that I am capable of achieving something that no one has ever done. I qualified after qualifying and won the US Open, so I can start from scratch and I’m not afraid to do it. “, testifies the current 13th in the world.
A seat that could lose in New York, since an early defeat would take him out of the top 70 in the world. But the young woman does not lose her calm. She’s not rushed by what she achieved last year or her current season, where her best results have been the quarter-finals in Stuttgart and Washington.
“I think everything that’s happening right now is something that was meant to happen on my journey. I need to go through these stages of development and growth because I have never experienced them before. I went from winning 25K tournaments to conquering the US Open “, he commented about his present.
In this way, the British are calm before the mission to reconquer New York. A challenge that today does not seem possible. Something that was also said last year.
