Britain’s Emma Raducanu, who surprised the world with her U.S. Open win, is sharing her excitement with a special message in Mandarin.
Raducanu’s victory trended on the Chinese social media platform Weibo. Her Mandarin message was viewed more than a million times, while one hashtag, “18-year-old ethnic Chinese young player wins US open championship,” was viewed more than 200 million times as of Monday. And although Raducanu’s Weibo account was only recently opened and has not yet been active, fan accounts and groups have already begun to form.
“She’s always instilled a lot of discipline and respect for other people into me, so I think that having parents like I do, they always push me, they have high expectations so I’ve always tried to live up to that. And I just hope I did them proud this week and I’m going to keep trying to go, keep going.”
