Emma Raducanu is through to the US Open final against fellow teenager Leylah Fernandez after defeating Greek 17th seed Maria Sakkari 6-1 6-4.
This will be the first all-teen final at the US Open since 1999, when a 17-year-old Serena Williams beat an 18-year-old Martina Hingis.
Emma becomes the first qualifier in history to get through to a Grand Slam final and is the first British woman to reach a Slam final in 44 years when Virginia Wade won Wimbledon in 1977!

18-year-old Emma Raducanu reaches the semi-finals of the US Open becoming the first player in the Open era to reach the last four of the American Grand Slam having started her campaign in qualifying.
Last month, Emma collected her A-level results and next week she will officially replace Johanna Konta as Great Britain's highest-ranked female player.

6 DAYS AGO - Wimbledon’s rainbow crossing is back!
Due to improvement works that took place outside the theatre, where the council recently created a new public space, the crossing had to be temporarily lost, but it has now returned after being relaid at the weekend.
The new crossing has had an update and now includes representation for black and trans pride, tying in with this year’s Hate Crime Awareness Week – from 9-16 October – which is focusing on trans hate crime.
Councillor Marsie Skeete, Cabinet Member for Women and Equalities, said: “We’re so happy to welcome back the Wimbledon crossing – it is a wonderful symbol of Merton’s inclusivity.
“We’re incredibly proud of our LGBTQ+ community and have always stood up for equality – the return of this crossing demonstrates our commitment to and pride in the diversity of the borough.
“It is just one of the many ways that the council stands in solidarity with all those who face discrimination in Merton and beyond.”

09/09/2021 - Emergency response officers who delivered a baby boy on the streets of Southwark have visited the family they helped in their time of need.
PC Mia Kerr and PC Tom Palmer were on regular patrols in Southwark on Friday, 20 August when at around 17:45hrs they were frantically waved down by a father-to-be to ask for help, as his partner was going into labour nearby in the street, supported by a kind stranger who was passing by.
After PC Mia Kerr informed the control room, PC Kirsty Roberts and PC Ali Miah swiftly arrived to provide further assistance. Officers quickly realised they would need to deliver the baby.
All officers on scene rose to the occasion; PC Kerr comforted the mother, whilst PC Palmer and PC Miah gathered make-shift items to assist the delivery. Other officers held up blankets for privacy to ensure members of the public were able to pass by without intruding.
Over the phone, London Ambulance Service (LAS) guided PC Roberts through how deliver the baby. There was a Collapse

07/09/2021 - Meet husband and wife team, Sam and Claire co-founders of @homework_workspace — "The perfect alternative to working from home".
The idea of HomeWork came to the pair over a few glasses of Rosé in summer 2018, born out of their own individual, less-than-perfect, experiences of flexible working.
They felt passionately that the current offerings just didn’t quite hit the mark and wanted to do something that would better support the individual and smaller businesses, enabling people to ‘work from home’ in an environment that is more conducive to work.
HomeWork Workspace is the next generation solution to the local, flexible ‘hybrid’ way of working.
Conveniently located on high streets in residential areas (SW London currently), they provide flexible and affordable workspaces and a fast growing community for local residents.
HomeWork has all the facilities you need for a productive day’s work: desks, power sources, ergonomic chairs, high speed (reliable!) wifi, breakout spaces, Collapse

03/09/2021 - #MusicFestivals in Morden Park this weekend must be Covid-safe, the council’s coronavirus lead has said.
Up to 10,000 people a day are expected to attended Beautiful People and Southbound festivals at the park this weekend.
Barry Causer, Merton Council’s Covid resilience boss said measures have been put in place by organisers Slammin Events.
Festival goers will have to show a Covid pass which either confirms they have had two vaccination jabs or a negative rapid test within 48 hours of the event.
Both festivals have issued the same Covid-19 statement on their websites.
It says: “After consultation with Merton Council and Public Health England, it has been agreed that in order to make [the festival] as safe as possible for all attendees, staff, artists and the local community, we will require anyone entering the event to present one of the following.”
It goes on to list a proof of negative lateral flow test on the NHS Covid app or NHS email result and proof of vaccination either Collapse

6 DAYS AGO - Bishop Climate Wiseman, the head of the Kingdom Church in south London has denied fraud after allegedly selling “plague protection kits” as a bogus cure for Covid-19.
He is said to have offered the package, containing a small bottle of oil and piece of red yarn, for £91.
He appeared at Inner London Crown Court on Monday wearing a white bishop-style robe, embroidered with gold crosses, dog collar and crucifix.
Wiseman spoke to confirm his identity and date of birth before pleading not guilty to a single charge of fraud and two charges under the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations between March 23 and 24.
The charges allege he made false representations while trading as “Bishop Climate Ministries” in person, online, and through instructional and testimonial videos.
Nargees Choudhary, defending, said her client was not an “anti-vaxxer” and had been double jabbed.
She said he is free to practise his religion and denies being “dishonest” or “acting in a deceitful Collapse

02/09/2021 - A very happy Faye Brann captured @wimbledonbooks finishing off a book signing for her funny and feel-good novel 𝘛𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘦𝘳, 𝘛𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘰𝘳, 𝘚𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘭𝘮𝘶𝘮, 𝘚𝘱𝘺.
Faye lived in Dubai, giving up any semblance of corporate life in favour of being part of an improv comedy troupe and blogging about being an expat.
This led her to a career in writing, and an MA in Professional Writing from Falmouth University.
Her first novel, Tinker, Tailor, Schoolmum, Spy, won the Comedy Women in Print Unpublished Prize in 2020.
This hilarious novel follows the escapades of Vicky, a middle-aged mother of three who is recalled to her former job, working for the top-secret Special Operations Executive. Her target: a parent at her daughter’s school, suspected of illegal arms trading.
