Emma Raducanu’s US Open success will enable her to be selective and work with brands and causes she believes in, a sponsorship lawyer has said.

The 18-year-old capped a stunning run from the qualifying rounds in New York with victory over Leylah Fernandez in Saturday’s women’s singles final, becoming the first British woman to win a grand slam since Virginia Wade in 1977.
