A few days ago, Raducanu posted a few pictures from her vacation in Greece with Agostinelli. Among other pictures, the 20-year-old also included a photo of Agostinelli.

"What Emma Raducanu did will never happen again" - Former Maria Sharapova agent Max Eisenbud on Brit's US Open win
Emma Raducanu stunned the world when she won her maiden Grand Slam title at the 2021 US Open. By doing so, she became the first qualifier to ever win a Grand Slam title, as well as the first British woman since 1977 to win a Grand Slam singles title.
Max Eisenbud, the former agent of Maria Sharapova and now representing the Brit, recently commented on Raducanu's unexpected win at Flushing Meadows and opined that such miracles won't happen again.
"That was incredible. What she did will never happen again," Eisenbud said in The Tennis Podcast.
Eisenbud also shed some light on who takes the decision when it comes to the 20-year-old's coaching situation, saying:
"The coaching situation, right or wrong, and this is something that her dad and Emma pretty much control on all the coaching stuff, that has been their philosophy all the way up through the juniors."
Having missed the French Open and Wimbledon this year, Raducanu is expected to return to the tour at the US Open.
