Emma Raducanu

Insights

Immediate Grand Slam breakthrough in 2021

Raducanu’s Grand Slam career begins in 2021 and already includes one title from just two appearances that year: Wimbledon R16 at age 18, then the US Open title at age 18. That is the clearest peak in the dataset.

Best results are concentrated at the top end

Across 16 tournaments and 41 matches, her best-results line is unusually compact: 1 champion, 2 R16 finishes, and 3 R32 finishes. Those six runs account for all of her listed standout outcomes.

2024 was her strongest full season after the title

In 2024 she reached the R16 at Wimbledon and the R64 at both the Australian Open and French Open, before a US Open R128. That is her only season after 2021 with a second-week result.

Early consistency gave way to a flatter 2025-26 stretch

From 2025 through the 2026 Australian Open and French Open, every listed result is R32 or worse: R32, R32, R64, R32, R64, R128, and R64. That sequence contrasts sharply with the earlier title and R16 finishes.

She is already the leading 2002-born woman in this dataset

The comparison table ranks her #1 of 25 women born in 2002, while also placing her #4 of 123 from the United Kingdom and #24 of 317 with overlapping careers. Those rankings frame her career as highly prominent within her age cohort.
