Tennis star Emma Raducanu has spent time in the Lake District away from competitive play, visiting Graythwaite Adventure for outdoor activities including shooting.

Tennis star Emma Raducanu has taken a break in the Lake District, sharing pictures from her visit on Instagram. The former US Open champion captioned the post 'Timeout in the Lakes', giving her millions of followers a glimpse of how she has been spending downtime away from competitive tennis.

Raducanu, aged 23, visited Graythwaite Adventure during her Cumbrian trip. The attraction, based on the Graythwaite Estate in the southern Lake District, offers a range of outdoor experiences, and Raducanu tried her hand at shooting while there.

Raducanu became one of Britain's biggest sporting names after her victory at the US Open in 2021. Then aged 18, she came through qualifying before winning the women's singles title without dropping a set, making her the first qualifier in the Open Era to win a Grand Slam singles title.

Her visit to Cumbria exposes the region to her sizeable international Instagram following. The trip comes during a period away from competitive tennis, with the British star having faced injury problems during the 2026 season.
