Just watching this character live at Wimbledon and wondered … WHY ?

Then I noticed that he has a ‘prominent’ nose and it reminded me of a theory that quite often when you see these weird peacock hairdoos or crazy fringes the person often has a distinctive snozzle

So in essence its a distraction technique

I love her courage and style of play but she ain’t English or British.


Plus her opponent looked decidedly podgy and slow around the court

I have no sympathy for athletes who are not dedicated to their trade

Tennis players need be ripped and super fit to win two hour matches ( women) or 4 hours + (men)

I'm glad to see that Raducanu is actually trying this tournament.

And you can't argue that she isn't physically fit either @Zizu

But it's a miracle to see Raducanu not pulling out of tournaments, hopefully she can keep it up.

She has such an unfortunate time since she shocked the world by winning the US title


In the last 15 months she’s had operations on both wrists and one ankle !!

She looks extremely fit ( tennis-wise Mog lol)


So she has a chance of winning Wimbledon Singles on behalf of Romania / China or Canada at a pinch

Maybe even the mixed doubles with Andy Murray !

I don't fancy her chances of winning the mixed doubles tbh, because with all due respect to Murray, he isn't the player that he was.

I hope that she can do well at the singles though.

Raducanu has only played doubles once before and was terrible but it will be a crowd pleaser

Yesterday must be the best she has played since the US Open win probably, she was on fire

What rubbish

i like Raducanu, she seems like a really nice girl that is grounded in reality. She has had a tough time since she won the US open, and she is still there and trying, just happy to be playing tennis

Hopefully they can at least get past the first round.

Born in Canada to Romanian/Chinese parents.

Her family moved to England when she was around two years old but she holds British and Canadian citizenship. She is fluent in Mandarin and Romanian.


Hardly sounds like a typical English rose ..

I've just checked her personal life on Wikipedia.

It says that her parents moved her to the UK at two years old, culturally she is very British.

Well Lewis Hamilton has spent the majority of his life living in Principality of Monaco .. so I guess he’s not English then …

Sounds like a brilliant British success story to celebrate

Grown up and lived 90% of her like in the UK and now competing at Wimbledon, we should be very pleased to have her as a Brit

I love it when slightly chunky ( ok overweight) players get dumped out of all the competitions early on. .

When will they learn that to compete with the top players they have to be in tip-top condition !!!
