Will Chelsea’s midsummer Copa Gianni endeavours catch up with them? Can any or all of the three promoted sides make a decent fist of not going straight back down this time?

The 2021 champion returns to Flushing Meadows in the best frame of mind since her extraordinary title winFor four arduous years, so much of Emma Raducanu’s life has played out in public. Every decision relating to her career has been dissected and debated. The most banal details surrounding her personal life have been transfigured into headline news. In order to find herself on and off the tennis court, Raducanu has had to learn how to tune out the noise, which at times can be deafening.Only one month ago at Wimbledon, the discourse surrounding the 22-year-old reached diabolical lows.
