Emma Raducanu has often copped heat for her lucrative sponsorships. The Brit quickly signed big-money deals with luxury brands after winning the US Open in 2021.
But she now looks set to lose her partnership with Porsche. The German car manufacturer is already said to have taken away one of her major benefits.
Raducanu was a teenager when she became a global brand ambassador for Porsche a few months after her triumph in New York.

She was later pictured driving a 911 Carrera GTS Cabriolet, worth £125,000. But, according to the Daily Mail, Porsche has “taken back” the car.
An associate of Raducanu’s reportedly said the world No. 54 “no longer has a Porsche.” They noted that it “used to have pride of place at her home.”

A Porsche spokesperson also confirmed that she was no longer in possession of a car and said they loaned her one “on occasion” and on an ad-hoc basis.
But they also stated they were “very happy” with their partnership with Raducanu, confirming that she is still an ambassador.
