JAKARTA - A beautiful British tennis player, Emma Raducanu, has received a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) title. This title was given for his services to England in the world of tennis.

The 20-year-old was honored by King Charles III at a ceremony at Windsor Castle on Tuesday, November 29, local time.

It came 14 months after Raducanu's surprise victory at the US Open. She became the first British female grand slam champion since Wimbledon Virginia totaling's 1977 win.

The 18-year-old is also the first qualifier to win a major title after his win over Leylah Fernandez in a championship game at Flushing Meadows.

In a statement released through his agent, Raducanu said, "I am delighted to receive my honor today from His Majesty the King - I feel very grateful."

So what is MBE? MBE is the third-placed title in the Order of the British Empire awards.

This title is given to individuals to appreciate the positive contribution made in the field of work that accepts it.

Unfortunately Raducanu did not enjoy a successful season in 2022. He failed to win the trophy or advanced beyond the second half of any grand slam.

His furthest pace in a tournament came in September, when he reached the semifinals of Korea Open. However, he had to hand the win in the semifinals to Jelena Ostapenko.
