Tennis sensation Emma Raducanu delighted fans this week with a surprise visit to Henley-on-Thames. She enjoyed a peaceful riverside stroll and a wander through town, taking time to relax ahead of her upcoming US Open appearance.
Emma shared five stunning photos on Instagram, captioned “Get a Grip.” One of the images showed a boat with that name moored at Mill Meadows, while others captured her enjoying the scenery at Marsh Meadows and near Tudor Antiques.
Her post sparked humorous comments from fans, including a cheeky remark about fellow tennis star Carlos Alcaraz’s recent outburst at the Cincinnati Open, where he smashed his racket.
Emma’s visit drew attention from both tennis fans and locals who appreciated her calm demeanor and down-to-earth presence in the historic town. Her casual outing showcased a different side of the young champion.
With the US Open set to begin Monday, the Henley retreat appeared to be a welcome pre-tournament escape. The serene riverside scenes reflected a moment of calm before Emma returns to the global tennis stage.
As anticipation builds for her performance in New York, Emma continues to capture hearts off the court with her charm and relatable moments—this time, by simply enjoying a quiet day in Henley.
