And she drove into the gym last week in her fresh silver Porsche 911 Carrera GTS Cabriolet complete with a red soft-top roof in the autumn sunshine.
Raducanu shared the smiley snap carrying a bottle of protein milkshake, her phone, bag and Wilson tennis racket on Instagram – decked out in her Nike gym gear and Tiffany jewellery.
She also uploaded a series of snaps from the brutal workout and a selfie during a massage from physio Will Herbet.

“Whenever I would turn up to practice in the morning, I would see his Porsche, I would go ‘wow’ and be dreaming of one day sitting in my own.
