The 18-year-old from Kent captured hearts at Wimbledon, as the first British woman in 42 years to get to the fourth round. Not referenced in the British Vogue interview published online on September 7 — when Raducanu was in the quarterfinals of the US Open as noted — is the fact that she WON the US Open.

The win put the warm-spirited, humble Raducanu in a record-breaking spot in tennis world as the first qualifier to ever win a Grand Glam at age 18. She was the first Brit to win the US Open since Virginia Wade in 1977.
