“The Emma Raducanu nice mask slips again” – Fans slam Brit for liking a post mocking Iga Swiatek’s controversial Australian Open incident

Tennis fans recently expressed their disapproval towards Emma Raducanu for liking a post that mocked Iga Swiatek’s controversial tactics used during her semifinal match at the 2025 Australian Open. Swiatek had faced eventual champion Madison Keys in the final four at the Melbourne Major.

This year, Iga Swiatek was seeded second at the Australian Open and triumphed over the likes of Katerina Siniakova and Emma Raducanu. However, the Pole succumbed to a surprising semifinal loss to Madison Keys, ending her run at the Australian Major.

Following Swiatek’s match against Keys, a social media post circulated online. The post seemingly mocked the former World No.1 for employing controversial delaying tactics during her match against Keys to disrupt the American’s rhythm.

It was seen that Emma Raducanu had apparently liked the post which did not sit well with tennis fans.

Many fans took to social media to criticize Raducanu on the matter. One fan suggested that Raducanu’s “nice” facade slipped when she liked the post mocking Swiatek.

“Emma Raducanu liking an Instagram reel mocking lga Swiatek for her delaying Madison Keys’ serve and then getting aced. The same Emma Raducanu who called a MTO for a fake hip injury when she was 3-0 down against Anisimova. The Raducanu nice mask slips. again,” a fan posted.
