Emma Raducanu 's replica US Open trophy will be paraded across the UK this summer on public show in a bid to inspire more youngsters to play tennis.
Raducanu made history when she became the first ever qualifier to win a Grand Slam singles title with her victory at last year's US Open. In the process, she also became the first British woman to win a Grand Slam singles title since Virginia Wade's 1977 Wimbledon win.
And the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) is looking to capitalise on the 19-year-old's success in a bid to get more youngsters interested in the sport. LTA chief executive Scott Lloyd said: "We have been talking to Wimbledon as well about how that can get some profile during the Championships."
