But while she’s still struggling to navigate the ups and downs of her brutal sophomore year, Raducanu assured the weight of her US Open achievement is not adding on more pressure. On the contrary, she told press.
“I'm a Slam champion, so no one's going to take that away from me,” Raducanu said. “If anything, the pressure is on those who haven't done that.”

Q. Next time you step onto a Grand Slam court, it's going to be as defending champion. How much has this week and the grass-court buildup with all the home pressure helped you for that moment?
EMMA RADUCANU: There's no pressure. Why is there any pressure? I'm still 19. Like, it's a joke. I literally won a Slam.
Going back to New York, it's going to be cool because I have got a lot of experiences playing on big courts, playing with people in the stadium, playing with the spotlight on you.
I don't mind that. For me, everything is learning. I'm embracing every single moment that is thrown at me.
