Teenage tennis sensation; Emma Raducanu is set to become a £1billion athlete after lawyers race to get her name registered with a trademark.

According to Association Press, Raducanu has applied for protection in the UK with the words “Emma Raducanu”, “Emma” and “Raducanu” – paving the way for her lines of cosmetics, perfumes, clothing, and footwear.

The United Kingdom was full of celebration on Saturday after the 18-year-old Brit took the sporting world by storm with a record-breaking US Open win. She made sporting history by becoming the first British woman to win a major title for 44 years since Virginia Wade lifted the Wimbledon trophy in 1977. She is also the first qualifier in history to lift a grand slam hence the rush for her name to be registered with a trademark.

Advertisers’ dream could shatter Roger Federer’s £215million ten-year sponsorship deal with fashion brand Uniqlo. Other tie-ups, such as a robbed Tiffany deal in China, can draw in an annual £20million in one go.

Wise investing could then earn Emma, ​​who received an A-level in economics and visited the New York Stock Exchange yesterday, topping 15 percent.

The teenager from Bromley, south east London, said: “Going to the trading floor was the one spot on my bucket list that I had to see before I left. Both my parents were into finance and I definitely want to know more about the business side of things. “

Although several players, including Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods, have amassed more than £1 billion, Emma will be the first woman in history to have amassed such a huge figure.

She set up her first limited company, Harbour 6, last year. Her new applications were filed within hours of her US Open win by UK lawyer Anthony Brierley.

Emma, also pictured yesterday with Olympic diver Tom Daley, could play at next month’s Transylvania Open in Cluj, Romania — and visit her grandmother in nearby Bucharest.

Her gran, who did not want to be named, told The Sun: “I’ll make mincemeat in cabbage leaves. It’s her favorite.”

Meanwhile, Emma  Raducanu has reunited with her parents(a Romanian father and a Chinese mother) in Bromley’s home today after her parents were stopped from seeing her US Open triumph in New York because of Covid travel restrictions.
