    Trivia. Who was the last Romanian tennis player to win a grand slam? A mesmerizing larker to boot? Give up? You're all too young.

    Come on Emma, be the next.

    Bingo :emoticon-0148-yes:
    The way he kicked the tennis ball over the net, he could have replaced Gheorghe Hagi in their national football team.

    Up there with the greats (tennis) in my mind.

    Emma Raducanu becomes the FIRST qualifier ever - male or female - to reach a grand-slam final.

    Quite some achievement.
