"Congrats @celineboutier!" Raducanu captioned her Instagram story.
A fan page of the tennis star shared a couple of pictures from the trophy ceremony.

"She'll win more Grand Slams when it's all said and done" - Emma Raducanu's agent Max Eisenbud
Emma Raducanu has faced significant backlash from tennis fans who argue that her numerous sponsorship agreements are impeding her capacity to concentrate on her career.
However, Raducanu's agent Max Eisenbud, who also serves as the Head of Clients at IMG tennis, strongly refuted the idea. He does not believe her extensive endorsement portfolio has had any negative impact on her performance following her remarkable title victory at the 2021 US Open.
"I don't think anything would've changed if we did zero deals, I really believe that. I think most people think that she's shooting all the time, but that's not the case," Eisenbud said on 'The Tennis Podcast.'
Eisenbud also expressed confidence in the ability of the Brit to secure another Grand Slam title. He emphasized that her victory at the US Open was not a mere stroke of luck, but rather a testament to her exceptional skills and potential as a player.
"She's young. You don't just accidentally win the US Open the way she did, you have to be great to do what she did, and I think she will settle, things will get more calm for her, and she will make more deep runs. I think she'll win more Grand Slams when it's all said and done," he said.
