Emma Raducanu ends 2025 with a rare feeling: that of having finally regained control of her career.

The return to Bromley: a breath of fresh air that changes everything
Back home after months of tournaments, Raducanu indulges in a rare luxury: time.
"I have been very little in the United Kingdom this year, but being in Bromley was like going back to childhood," she confides.
Cafes, walks to disconnect, the player rediscovered a simple daily life that did her good.
"I didn't see them. How did they take this photo?"
But it was when talking about a snapshot taken in London that Raducanu triggered incredulous laughter.
The photo, published by a tabloid, showed her with a man during a rugby match. And immediately, rumors of a new partner exploded.
Except that the man in question was none other than the brother of her best friend.
"What bothered me is that I didn't even see the paparazzi... Come on, guys. Be serious. It's just not true," she sighs.
Thus, Raducanu definitively puts an end to speculations concerning her private life.
