Emma Raducanu refuses to let Porsche saga slide as tennis star sends two-word message
WATCH NOW: Sports round-up as Emma Raducanu continues to hit out at Porsche rumours
Emma Raducanu doesn't seem willing to let the recent Porsche saga slide - if her social media is anything to go by.
Reports recently claimed the 21-year-old had had her luxury car taken away by the manufacturers as a result of her inconsistency over the past couple of years.
Raducanu signed a brand deal with Porsche back in 2022, shortly after her US Open triumph the previous year.
She has often struggled to live up to expectations in the time since, however, with injury woes frequently hampering her development.

Raducanu has made fun of the speculation, regularly showing off a Porsche she owns on social media over the past few weeks.
And Raducanu has now done the same, with the Briton clearly unwilling to drop the matter.
She took to Instagram to share a snap of her Porsche parked away for the night with a caption that read: "Good day."
While Porsche apparently took back her car, it's possible the Briton has forked out for a new one given how much she likes the brand.

Porsche insist they're happy with their relationship with Raducanu, who is one of the most-marketable tennis players in the world.
She is currently injured but is hoping to return to action at the Billie Jean Cup later this month.
Raducanu has shared numerous clips on her social media of herself hitting a ball as she gears up for her comeback.
And whether she's able to stay fit remains to be seen, with the tennis star hoping to do 'serious damage' next year.

Meanwhile, one of Raducanu's former coaches recently opened up on the 21-year-old.
Mark Petchey believes it is important for the younger to 'block out the noise' given the relentless criticism of her schedule.
The tennis star was widely scrutinised before the US Open in August, having played just one hard court tournament beforehand.
But Petchey has urged Raducanu to focus only on herself, rather than things out of her control.

“When she won the US Open back in 2021, no blueprint or manual could explain what was going to happen in her life or career after that breakthrough moment.
“When you get offers for sponsorships and endorsements as a player, it’s very hard to turn those down, especially when she was young and new to the tour.
"There are very few players that would have done anything differently.”
