2.5million – prize money in US dollars for Raducanu's efforts over the last fortnight, equivalent to £1.8m. Raducanu's career earnings before this tournament stood at a combined 303,376 dollars, or around £219,000.

0 – sets dropped on the way to the final, winning 18 in succession across qualifying and the main draw.

4 – Raducanu reached the fourth round at Wimbledon on her grand slam main draw debut, before retiring on medical grounds against Australia's Ajla Tomljanovic.

1 – Raducanu is the first qualifier ever to reach a grand slam final.

17 – court on which Raducanu and Fernandez played at Wimbledon in the 2018 girls' singles, with the latter's name displayed on the scoreboard as Leylah Annie Fernandez. Raducanu won 6-2 6-4.
