Wow! This 18 yr old tennis player from Bromley got a few mentions in the Wimbledon thread earlier this year. Now she has just played wonderful tennis to beat Bencic in the US Open to win a place in the semi-finals. A real future British champion with a lovely personality and terrific temperament. I'm an unashamed fan. Good luck in the Semis Emma.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

Was wondering about her unusual surname ….it’s Romanian..she was born in Canada to a Romanian father and Chinese mother.

If she stays injury free, a future world no 1 I think. Great match to watch tonight beating the Olympic gold winner. So strong, fit and fast - There’s a lot of young women and men coming through at the moment with the old guard about to move aside.

Funny timing, that Emma and I now both have serious semi's to get through. Though obviously, my semi is in a totally different ball park Edited by Forest Hillbilly (09 Sep 2021 8.23am)

Best of luck to her. I couldn't see it on TV anywhere. It used to always be on when I had no interest at all. Now not on as far as I can tell.
