Becoming the first British woman to win a Grand Slam since 1977, Emma has continued to dominate on the court, rising to world #10 in July 2022. 

After suffering from a string of injuries, forcing her into a brief hiatus from the sport, fans turned their focus to Emma’s life away from the court, including her relationship with a certain billionaire.

But alas, it’s believed Raducanu and Carlo Agostinelli have split, after she deleted all traces of the finance scion from her Instagram page.

“I just play so much better when I’m happy and putting my personality out there,” Raducanu told Sky Sports in July. “I think I’ve been playing a lot freer in the last month.

Being single seems to have put a spring in the 21-year-old’s step. “I have been expressing myself, I’ve been fighting and there has been a lot of passion, I’ve been feisty.

“And that’s me. I’m really tenacious and gritty,” she continued. “I think in the past I was always playing a role and sometimes I wasn’t enjoying certain moments freely and carefree.”
