    I think the other one is moaning about the medical time out.

    Arise the new Queen of tennis ! Absolutely fantastic performance against an equally brilliant young tennis player .. SPOTY nailed on ... and done in style .. the quality shown by both Raducanu and Fernández belies their young years and rankings .. top quality stuff. Well done missy .. thoroughly deserved.

    Well done Emma!

    Agree. And I am not a tennis fan particularly.

    Brilliant.
    She wasn't just playing her opponent, but the crowd!
    Stunning talent. Hope she goes on to win many more.
    So proud of an English girl.

    Decisions, decisions, the first game of tennis I have watched in a long time Continue with the tennis, or switch to MOTD for the second coming. Nah, stick with the tennis and watch the first coming. Bloody ell, I enjoyed that.

    Wow, just wow. Unbelievable, unforgettable, unstoppable. The first qualifier in history to be crowned Grand Slam Champion. At 18. In her maiden WTA final.

    Well done Emma, and Fernandez, great skill, quality & athleticism.

    lest we overlook it, leylah fernandez has also had a phenomenal run. we're going to be hearing a lot from both of them for years to come.

    Wow. I can't get my head around that.

    Wow. Things like this just don't happen (or at least rarely in a lifetime)! We've been fortunate to witness something incredibly special. Simply amazing.

    Well that was rather special.


    Taking into account the magnitude of the event and her complete lack of experience, I'm struggling to think of a more impressive sporting victory from a Brit in my lifetime.
