Emma Raducanu takes on the mantle of Porsche Brand Ambassador

The rising star of the tennis courts will represent Porsche around the world

-

Porsche was courting US Open tennis star Emma Raducanu before the British player took her Grand Slam tournament victory in New York last summer. Now the relationsh­ip has been made official with Emma becoming a Porsche Brand Ambassador.

Following her success at the US Open, Emma was named a Member of the Order of the British Empire, the youngest woman ever to receive the honour. The 19-year-old is currently world ranked number 13 and will represent Porsche across the world. In April, she will make her debut at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart’s Porsche Arena.

“Porsche is one of the brands I’ve always loved from a young age,” said Emma. “Growing up, I would go to Brands Hatch to watch Porsche Carrera Cup GB. The adrenalin I would get from motorsport­s and seeing the Porsches was actually the most fun part of my week.”
