Emma Raducanu recently reflected on how she celebrated her 2021 US Open victory, revealing a personal touch that contrasted with typical grand celebrations. Instead of dining at an upscale restaurant, Raducanu and her family chose to commemorate the historic win with a homemade meal prepared by her mother.
The British tennis star, who made history by becoming the first qualifier to win a Grand Slam title, fondly recalled enjoying her mother’s spring rolls and dumplings as the most rewarding aspect of the celebration.
In an interview with Marie Claire, Raducanu shared that while comfort foods are not a regular part of her health-conscious lifestyle, they hold significant sentimental value. She described the meal as her “happiest” memory of the celebration, highlighting the deep emotional connection she has with her family and their traditions.
