They were different sure but for 26 of the 28 games they played size didn't matter, they went toe to toe. It was experience and mental toughness that counted in the end.
The Ossie blew Otte & cold. Murray was Mint ! More like the Hippy Hippy Shakes. Excellent match. Full credit to the German lad, but this week... UK 2 - 0 Germany.
Emma Raducanu .. remember that name .. this girl is a star in the making .. what a performance that was .. fantastic
Her post-match interview on R5 Live was excellent. She was asked 'what is the biggest thing winning this match means to you?', reply 'it means I get to come back and have another game!'.
British??? Raducanu was born in Toronto, Canada to a Romanian father and a Chinese mother.... Not after Brexit!
Watched her interview on the TV and the girl just didn't stop smiling .. brand new experience for her all this and tbh what a breath of fresh air .. lovely to witness.
She moved to London when she was 2, this is the only country she's known, she's British, as is Sterling, who's going to get us the win tonight.
Multiple citizenships anyone? It's concievable Raducanu could have a minimum of 2, and if she spent time in China or Romania in the future, if those countries allow dual citizenship, she may be allowed to have 4 different citizenships/passports. I'm not familiar with the rules/laws of citizenship with the latter 2 countries. Tennis Federations may have even more freedoms as to which country a player can align themselves with. e.g. Cameron Norrie was born in Joburg and has lived in NZ and the UK. It's like collecting international football shirts.
Saw an article the other day and 80% of footballers coming through the England age ranks have dual nationality Gonna make some daft old racists sick
