Emma Raducanu keeps adding accomplishments. After her outstanding performance at Wimbledon, pushing Aryna Sabalenka to the edge, and her impressive display at the WTA Washington, reaching the semifinals, the British player continues her positive streak at WTA Montreal. She has already secured two victories against Gabriela Ruse and Peyton Stearns, aiming to advance to the last 16 facing a tough opponent like Amanda Anisimova, a finalist in London.

Since her appearance at Wimbledon, Raducanu seems like a different player. Despite reaching the quarterfinals of the Miami Open in March, her clay court season was somewhat inconsistent. However, in her homeland, she displayed a completely transformed version of herself. More relaxed, yet more focused with a crushing forehand. As the US Open is just a few weeks away and considering her recent form, fans are starting to hope for a late revival of the British star in the place where she burst onto the scene. Nevertheless, ranked 33rd in the WTA rankings, she is focused on her game and, above all, on enjoying her time on the court. She openly expressed this in an interview with Tennis.com

Embracing the joy of the game

"I am very pleased with my progress and how I am evolving. My focus is no longer solely on the results but on enjoying every day and trying to accumulate as many good days as possible, without letting the bad ones affect me. Even if I have a rough morning session, I try to bounce back right away."

Delighted with her new self

"I think when I see myself now, I really like how I appear on the court. I mean the energy, and I feel quite upbeat. I believe I seem more composed on the court. I think it is a result of the work I put in behind the scenes that maybe people don't see. I love that, I love building on it, doing everything in the shadows. I feel pretty calm because I know that, regardless of the outcome, I am doing the right thing, accumulating many consecutive good days, and striving to maintain the streak. It is working really well. It eases the pressure on the immediate match results."

Aware of the transient nature of fame

"Results are so fleeting. Even if you win the US Open, you are only in the spotlight for a few days, then you return straight to work. Yes, it is such an unforgiving calendar with a tournament every week. Even if you win a Grand Slam and then lose because you are tired the following week, you still feel bad about the loss. Yes, it is strange, but now my aim is to keep working hard and accumulating good days. I have been doing really well," says a content Raducanu, eager to keep climbing to solidify her position among the best tennis players in the world.
