Tennis Debate Heats Up: Emma Raducanu vs Valentin Vacherot! 🎾🔥
Emma Raducanu fans are outraged after former World No. 8, John Isner, compared her 2021 US Open victory to Valentin Vacherot’s recent win at the Shanghai Masters. Isner dared to say Vacherot’s triumph was more impressive. 😲
Why the controversy? Vacherot, ranked 204, defied all odds by beating tennis titan Novak Djokovic and taking the title at Shanghai. But many argue that’s nothing compared to Raducanu’s spectacular run at the US Open. As a mere 18-year-old qualifier, she stunned the world by clinching the Grand Slam, without dropping a set, all in just her second major tournament!
Tennis fans didn’t hold back their thoughts online. One pointed out, “A qualifier winning a Masters is impressive, but a Slam? Unprecedented!” Another highlighted Raducanu’s youth and inexperience, saying, “She was only 18, fresh out of school, going on to win a major is simply beyond words!” 💪🎾
While Isner credits Vacherot for pulling off a remarkable feat, many remain firm fans of Raducanu’s legendary US Open journey. Some simply brushed off Isner’s opinion, whilst acknowledging the brilliance in both achievements.
