Oyogist Has Learned that 18 yr old great Britain’s tennis player, Emma Raducanu has reached the US Open final after a stunning, one-sided victory over Maria Sakkari.
Raducanu is now the first qualifier – male or female – to reach the final of a singles Grand Slam tournament.
Raducanu was ranked 361st in the world when she burst on to the scene at Wimbledon earlier this summer – a month after receiving her A level results.
The teenager battled with three qualifying matches to make the main draw at the US Open, which is only her second major tournament.
Her straight sets win over 17th seed Sakkari – 6-1, 6-4 – took less than 90 minutes.
