Speaking on her new deal, Raducanu said, “For me to be a brand ambassador of Porsche means a lot. Porsche is one of the brands I’ve always loved from a young age. When I was younger I remember the Porsche Grand Prix was always a very big tournament and the winner would get a Porsche. That was always very special.”
The 19-year old who was pictured with a Porsche 911 when she was unveiled as the brand ambassador said that the 911 is her favourite car. “One of my first tennis coaches drove a 911. Whenever I would turn up to practice in the morning, I would see his Porsche I would go wow and be like dreaming of one day sitting in my own“, said Raducanu. She further added, “My favourite car is the 911 for sure. Throughout the generations, it’s so unique and beautiful in every way. I feel like it’s one of the most iconic cars that are out there.”
