Re: Radacanu
How did she fluke it, given that she didn't drop a set in the entire tournament?

Re: Radacanu
"bird's [sic] 2 setters"?
But that's the same for every female tennis player.
And how was her being "unknown" a benefit given that you still have to be the better player to win?
Don't think you've thought this one through, paolo...

Gotta go with Paulo on this. 
Still being a one slam wonder however you come by it is probably worth a gong.

Re: Radacanu
Raducanu has barely been on the pro circuit two years.
The number of men of a certain age rushing to write her off is just bizarre.

Re: Radacanu
It was a freak result reaffirmed by her post win form and that can happen in professional sport but that doesn't mean she's destined to be a multiple slam winner nor does saying she's a one slam wonder condemn her. She can have a perfectly decent career earning millions on the circuit and sponsorship and never get that near a final again.

Re: Radacanu
So why the gong?
What services to tennis has she performed?
