Emma Raducanu press conference after her first-round defeat at the US Open 🎾

[@rihannafan1429]

I think Emma should focus on playing a bunch of 125/250s where she’ll be more likely to go deep and potentially win. That way she’ll gain confidence and she’ll rise in the rankings. I seriously do not understand not playing for weeks before this slam. She also needs to start playing qualifiers instead of waiting around for a WC

She feels way too good for that 😌

[@jgunner94]

Her team maybe thought is it worth it in the long run to risk overplaying having just played Washington, have maybe 2 matches at Cincinnati then still wait around for 10 days or so which is still a decent length away not playing.

Emma's been quite consistent this year and has a lot to build on going forward. Yes, this was a tough 1st round battle, and that's tennis. She's had surgery on her wrists and ankles, and earlier this month, she reached the Citi quarter finals. She recently pulled out of doubles at Wimbledon to manage injuries. I'm sure there's more to come from her. And even if she doesn't win another slam, she's richer than most people here, so is doing something right.

[@elloco-q3h]

It's NOT working Emma. She looks more & more like a fallen star; like someone who has completely lost their way. She found success very early (maybe too early) & it went straight to her head with endless photoshoots, endorsements, glitz, razzmatazz. Suddenly, she thought she'd arrived at the top. But getting to the top is the easy part. Staying there is the real test. She must look at the Sabalenkas, the Igas, the Pegulas who work their butts off week in, week out & do the hard yards. IMO though, she is not motivated enough.

[@pikaso6586]

Of course there are lots of great players and it’s not straightforward to win against them. There are already a lot of top players out of the competition. (Sakkari, Ostapenko, Collins, Stephens. etc) It was a big mistake for her not to play in qualis for the Canadian and Cincinnati Opens and she knows that.

While she was recuperating she and like all the other players were trying to fulfill it. Is it her fault that she’s beautiful, can model and have other endorsements. It’s businesses and funding has to come from somewhere. Is it her fault that others are hyping her up in hopes that she makes a comeback. You haters are so disrespectful and disgusting. We don’t know what happens BTS, but it was evident from that interview that she looked crushed. She recently just said that she was finally enjoying playing again.

Don't show any type of confidence and play down your likeness and looks, because you don't deserve it because you only won one grand slam.

Go back to the journey that Emma won the US Open. She came to the US, played a bunch of lower level tournaments and played really well. Then the Qualies at the US Open, then got a bit lucky with the draw, no top 10 along the way. Now she would not be Oxford material IF she thinks she can just show up at any tournament, let alone the Majors and can just win, win her way to the Final and the Trophy. Wish it could be that easy, Emma. Go ask Coco, Pegula, Sabalenka, Quinweng Zheng, Ons, etc... who are one or two level BETTER than Emma right now. To win, you much be very fit and are match sharp and hope for a bit of luck in your draw, and hope in the matches, you play just a bit better than your opponent. POINT: If you truly love tennis, Emma, just go play matter win or loss or the name of the tournament. Eventually, you will grow and become a very good tennis player. Forget about your US Open trophy.

Nah there's no way this girl is crying lol. She must have been very deluded to think she could do a whole lot better than this smh.

[@philsreef746]

She’s finished and her sponsors are finishing with her too. First her Porsche is taken back. Next will be Nike. An absolute embarrassing individual.

[@robw8173]

Karma!!!

[@Zumbie15]

she the Ronda Rousey of Tennis?

[@stellaluv2]

It was a winnable match!

[@moo6672]

Yes, someone won it!!

[@liam10123]

Well yes she was a 1/4 favourite, she was expected to win.

[@tennisrant]

She has the Champions mindset. Just needs adequate matchplay and she will start to hit her stride again.

[@sauronthegreat5799]

If tennis doesn't work out Emma can do modeling. It worked for kournikova. She made millions just from modeling.

[@mwelb5251]

...and this is EXACTLY what Serena Williams was talking about. Jounalists at press conferences asking players the DUMBEST questions after a match. She just lost, how do you think she feels?....and people wonder why these atheletes are suffering when it comes to their mental health.

[@jgunner94]

The journalist asked how she feels and she got emotional, if they don’t ask that people will say “why they asking such robotic questions and not asking how she feels”. So I don’t agree with your take there.

[@franciso.connell1634]

Bad management. You needed more competition before us open. So obvious Cincenatti???? Montreal????

[@AmberDawnStewart]

no sympathy after what she did to andy murray thinks she is too good

[@BOZ_11]

oh be quiet. How many bloody send off's does Andy need?? He had Rafa and Djoko send him off after his doubles exit at Wimby, and Roger managed to see him too, despite missing the on-court send off. Andy's having a tough time letting go of tennis, but tennis left him 2 years ago

[@illyaedwards7188]

​@@BOZ_11Tennis has definitely left Emma

[@BOZ_11]

​@@illyaedwards7188nope. If you don't like her then don't watch her. You guys are obsessed by her, always talking talking smack but watching and commenting on all her vids

[@joeperrin3217]

​@@BOZ_11mate you're a dick head

[@SA-bx9cp]

Fully agree with the last comment, I cannot think of any other tennis player who thinks training blocks are enough to win matches. She needs matches to get her body used to them, alas that US Open win messed things up too much. There is no doubt that she could be very good and definitely top 10 at the very least.

[@Ivanntu]

I don't agree. Her realistic level is exactly where she is now, around 50-100. Maybe she can go to 30-50, but she hasn't really demonstrated consistent level to go beyond that. The only reason she was in top 10 was the US Open win.

[@BOZ_11]

@@Ivanntu she's at least as good as Boulter, who's ranked in the 30s and is a seed everywhere she goes.

[@Ivanntu]

@@BOZ_11 Not at the moment. At the end of the year it will become clear if she can enter the top 50.

[@BOZ_11]

​@@IvanntuI'm not talking about ranking, I'm talking about ability.

[@Ivanntu]

@@BOZ_11 Ability is nothing without action to realize it. Ability is subjective and unknown. That's why we look at results and rankings.

[@Partyanimal1066]

Emma isn’t as half as talented as she would like to think.Thats the problem. Her excuses with injuries is wearing thin.The tears are not helpful. She isn’t a top international tennis player ,and she knows that.She only won the American Open because that year the competition wasn’t as hard as it usually is. She has her millions curtesy of the Tennis World and deals to wear trinkets from expensive backers. She once said her Dad looked after the money side of things. Is he still doing that.? She’s not dedicated to being a top tennis player,unless of course she can park her rather tacky Porsche she’s acquired in centre court. Other young tennis players who are far more dedicated to the game than Emma is should be given the chance to shine.

[@ianbarnhurst4450]

Looking at that interview I think the penny has finally dropped with Emma. There is no substitute for match play and she is clearly not getting enough. I have watched a couple of games recently from her 2021 success in NY and I have to say her fitness then looks far superior to what it is now. There is no doubt she benefited greatly from playing qualies and was very sharp as she went into the main draw. She says she is a better player now, don’t agree, her movement and service consistency were far superior then. I believe she can get into the top 30 if she plays more tournaments but I would not see her much higher than that with her current game. Great win over Sakari at Wimbledon but Maria beat herself to some degree and is struggling generally. Again great win over Pegula at Eastbourne but she had just won Berlin I think and looked a little jaded. I am not trying to detract from these achievements, I am a massive Emma fan, but I watch a lot of tennis and I think expectations need tempering, there are lot of very good players out there, probably more than in 2021, and you always run the risk of a tough first round opponent with such a low ranking.

[@philipdawson3660]

Sadly if your part time player then part time results follow

[@jaybone58]

You do you, Emma. Practice hard and better luck next time.

[@Kyle27ish]

You do you is clearly not working out don't you think?

[@joeperrin3217]

😂😂😂

[@daver8253]

Her aggressive forehand game is gone! She gets smashed off the court .e.g Sun at Wimbledon, now Kenin US Open. Why does she turn up at a match not ready to compete? Her 1st serve is a lottery! What is she and her coaching team doing! They play well against her because she returns balls that are setup for them to smash back across the court. Whatever she does in training isn’t good enough!

[@rayphillips-r2y]

Sadly, true!

[@erinhwang6389]

emma fan here. unfortunately her serve and return let her down. I think it was a mistake not to play cincinnati. on to the next! 💪

[@danielwoods3563]

@@erinhwang6389 the next being Seoul which is in 19 days. So 25 days off before last night, and now another 19 days. One match in 44 days. There’s three WTA tournaments between now and Seoul that she could play in.

[@jameslivermore-n2h]

this angels career has been so badly mismanaged its unbelievable.

[@Partyanimal1066]

By who?

[@心心-e2e]

Sorry, next year no more wild card for you😂

[@logicrule]

She sounds so much like a positive thinker, she must have read those "growth" mindset books. I did better, I did well, opponent just did better. Sometimes, positive thinking does not mean you should not look at what you did badly, like if you only think "There are no weeds in the garden" whilst not mowing the lawn, your garden will be overgrown with weeds.

[@waynepinnock5874]

I think she is a very talented human being who has a lot to offer the world, but i dont think tennis is her great love. I would advise Emma to pursue her hearts desire. She doesn't need all of the aggro she gets through being a half hearted tennis pro. I wish her well.

[@omabdulgani]

I agree, tennis probably isn't her great love. If it was, she'd insist on playing as many tournaments as possible. That's what people do who love the game. Play, play, play.

[@markthomas3730]

TIME TO RETIRE...

[@stankos1637]

A victim is accidental success.

[@Ivanntu]

I don't think that her results are that bad, considering she didn't also play in so many tournaments like Roland Garros and the two masters before the US Open. I wouldn't have even thought she would break into the top 100 up to now and she did. Her realistic level for me is 50-100. They just keep overestimating her a lot, because of 1 won tournament, even if it is a grand slam (it's still played 2 out of 3 sets in the women tour, like every other tournament).
