It would be better if tradition meant the Men's champ gave her a good back-scuttling but I think the thought of Serena Williams put paid to that idea.
I believe she has a boyfriend, lucky sod!... :D

Being faithful isn't a requirement in tennis stars.

Andy Murray often used to get pissed up and go for a knee trembler in the car park of the Knatchbull Arms near me just before Queens.

The knee trembler found fast asleep soon after coz he’s such a boring cunt.

It clearly wasn't him in the gimp suit at Claverham that's for sure.

With this victory, Raducanu becomes:

The first British female winner at Flushing Meadows since Virginia Wade in 1968
The first qualifier in the Open era to win a Slam
The youngest women's Slam champion since Maria Sharapova at Wimbledon in 2004
The youngest Briton to win a Grand Slam title
The first woman to win the US Open without dropping a set since Serena Williams in 2014
She will also take home £1.8m in prize money, rise to 23 in the world rankings and will become the British number one on Monday.
Can't stand the sport tbh, but good luck to her. But how the fuck has someone whose old man is Romanian, and with a Chinese mother and a birth certificate saying she was born in Canada, by any stretch of the imagination be described as British ?

Isn't your nationality basically determined by where you were born ? Unless you were born abroad whilst your parents were serving, for example, in the military or the civil service.
There are plenty of famous "Brits" who weren't born here.

Two off the top of my head,Spike Milligan and Cliff Richard.

I was born near where you live now and lived there for a few years,before moving away.

I was brought up in London.This is where I went to school,met my friends and went to work and why I talk with a posh accent..NOT :lol: This is where I learnt life skills and mixed with the majority of people I know now.I vaguely remember my life before I moved at 4.

Raducanu is similar.She went to School here and learnt to play tennis in Kent.She probably knows very little of her time in Canada..
