I'm not sure she needed much help yesterday, but the New York crowd are certainly enjoying Raducanu's run.

Raducanu thrashes Sorribes Tormopublished at 18:18 British Summer Time 5 September 2021
Emma Raducanu just keeps on improving - and surprising.
The British 18-year-old thrashed Spain's Sara Sorribes Tormo, ranked 41st in the world, 6-0 6-1 in a one-sided US Open encounter yesterday to extend her extraordinary overseas Grand Slam debut.
"My game is just getting better with each match," said Raducanu - the world number 150 (for now) - following her win.
"I was playing very well and I know Sara is a tough opponent so I had to be on my game and worked so hard,"

Rogers up next for Raducanupublished at 18:15 British Summer Time 5 September 2021
The shocks just keep on coming at the 2021 US Open.
World number one Ashleigh Barty fell in the third round to American Shelby Rogers, who produced a superb comeback in front of a raucous New York crowd last night.
Wimbledon champion Barty held a 5-2 lead in the final set and twice served for the match, however home favourite Rogers - the world number 43 - triumphed in a tie-break to stun the top seed 6-2 1-6 7-6 (7-5).
And next she will meet British teenager Emma Raducanu, following her stunning win earlier in the day...
