British teenage sensation Emma Raducanu has been grabbing all the headlines over the past week. The youngster has managed to reach the quarterfinal of the US Open in her first attempt. Not many players are capable of achieving what the young player has done during the final Grand Slam of the season. 

After winning her fourth-round match, Emma Raducanu has found herself in the company of American legend Serena Williams. Until now, the British player has lost only 15 games so far. The only person to come close to this incredible feat is Williams.

Emma Raducanu is a special talent 

In 2013, Serena lost only 13 games until she booked a spot in the quarterfinal. However, in 2013, the 23-time Grand Slam winner was 31 years old and Emma is just 18 years old at the moment. She is certainly going to only get better with time and has the talent to do wonders in this elegant sport. 

The youngster played her first Major tournament at the Wimbledon Championships this season. Out there too, she performed brilliantly and made it to the second week of the Grand Slam event.

On the other hand, Williams twisted her ankle during the opening round of the Wimbledon Championships. Due to that, she had to retire from the match and decided to skip the US Open too.
